Gleipnir #14

Sun Takeda's Gleipnir rolls into its fourteenth volume with a cover that perfectly captures the series' distinctive blend of the unsettling and the cool — a confident blonde young woman in a striped track jacket stands posed in front of an enormous, slack-jawed monster suit, its wide mechanical grin looming large behind her. The contrast between her casual, almost smirking composure and the hulking, toothy creature at her back is exactly the kind of tension that keeps readers coming back. At $12.99, this 2024 Kodansha USA release is a solid next chapter for anyone already deep into this strange and compelling story.
