Claymore #22

Norihiro Yagi's Claymore reaches its twenty-second volume with a cover that radiates an eerie, otherworldly chill — a lone, slender figure stands at the center, flanked by two enormous, grinning yoma faces looming in from either side, their red eyes and jagged teeth giving the whole composition a deeply unsettling sense of enclosure. The cool blue-grey palette and the massive creature form filling the foreground create a striking sense of scale, making that solitary central figure feel both vulnerable and defiant. Published under VIZ's Shonen Jump Advanced imprint, this volume is a compelling entry in one of manga's most atmospheric dark-fantasy series.
