Drifting Dragons #15

Taku Kuwabara's beloved sky-hunting series reaches its fifteenth volume, and the cover captures the crew in a wonderfully chaotic moment — a bearded man, a curly-haired young woman clutching a bowl, a dark-haired woman peering over the ship's railing, and a fourth figure visible at the edges, all crowded around a massive riveted piece of airship machinery on the wooden deck. The warm, earthy tones and the characters' wide-eyed, animated expressions give the scene the feeling of a crew deeply at home in the beautiful mess of their shared life aboard the draking ship. If you've been following along, this 2023 volume is another great reason to stay on board.
