Combatants Will Be Dispatched! #4

Volume 4 of Combatants Will Be Dispatched! arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the series' blend of action and charm — a grinning, dark-haired combatant in a sleek black-and-cyan tactical suit brandishes a futuristic pistol, while a blonde girl in a flowing white dress coolly hefts a rifle nearly as tall as she is. Masaaki Kiasa's art brings real energy to the duo's back-to-back stance, and Kakao Lanthanum's character designs keep both figures looking sharp and distinctly memorable. Story by Natsume Akatsuki, this 2021 Yen Press release is a fine addition to the manga shelf at $13.00.
