Le comte de Monte-Cristo #[nn]

Part of Nobi Nobi!'s Les Classiques en Manga series, this 2018 adaptation brings Alexandre Dumas's tale of imprisonment and revenge to life in striking manga form. The cover commands attention immediately: a long-haired, cape-clad figure reaches forward with quiet intensity, heavy chains breaking apart around him against a backdrop of crumbling stone walls. It's a vivid visual promise of the freedom and vengeance at the heart of this enduring story.
