Dogsred #1

Satoru Noda brings his sharp, kinetic manga storytelling to the ice with this opening volume of Dogsred, published by Ki-oon's seinen imprint. The cover places a steely-eyed hockey player — wearing number 66, red gloves raised, and a goalie mask pushed back on his head — front and center against a crimson-tinged arena backdrop, radiating the kind of quiet intensity that makes you want to turn the page immediately. Sports manga fans and Noda devotees alike have every reason to lace up for this one.
