Issak #18

A warrior's long dark hair fans out mid-battle on the striking cover of Issak Vol. 18, his face taut with effort as he grips a long rifle amid bursts of fire and debris. Shinji Makari's story and Double-S's artwork make for a compelling combination, and this Ki-oon seinen release captures the series' signature blend of period-era action and intense personal drama. If you've been following the series, volume 18 looks poised to keep the tension running high.
