Genkaku Picasso #3

Volume 3 of Genkaku Picasso brings a striking close-up of the series' bespectacled young protagonist front and center, his wide blue eyes gazing directly at the reader against an intricate backdrop of golden gears and clockwork machinery. The detailed mechanical imagery surrounding him gives the cover a wonderfully surreal, dreamlike quality that perfectly suits this manga's imaginative spirit. Published by Tonkam in 2012, this volume is a compelling addition to one of the more visually inventive series of its era.
