Darwin's Game #8

A brooding young man stands front and center on this Ki-oon seinen volume, a faint glow emanating from his open hand, while four distinct companions — including a white-haired figure in animal-eared attire, a sharp-eyed dark-haired woman, a blonde young man, and a girl in a vivid red dress — fan out behind him against a warm dusk sky. FLIPFLOPs' survival-game series hits its eighth volume with a lineup that radiates tension and camaraderie in equal measure. If you've been following Darwin's Game since the beginning, this 2016 Ki-oon release makes a compelling next chapter for the shelf.
