Ippo #10

Volume 10 of Kurokawa's French edition of Ippo — Saison 5 : Dans l'ombre du champion puts the protagonist's intense, close-up gaze front and center — dark, determined eyes that practically dare you to look away. Silhouetted above him, a dynamic boxing figure mid-punch conveys the high-stakes ring action that defines George Morikawa's long-running series. It's a striking, no-frills cover that captures the quiet fire driving this 2018 release.
