Deathco #7

With its stark black-and-white artwork, this seventh volume of Atsushi Kaneko's Deathco presents a striking close-up of a pale young woman with heavy, shadowed eyes and a small fang visible at the corner of her lips, bats wheeling silently in the dark space around her. The cover's high-contrast minimalism gives the whole thing an unsettling, gothic elegance that feels genuinely distinctive on a 2018 shelf. Kaneko's linework here is precise and expressive — a quietly menacing image that makes a strong case for the series as a standout of darker manga fiction.
