Lonely World #2

The second volume of Lonely World arrives with a striking cover from Iualobineko: a massive, cable-wrapped mechanical being cradles a small, wide-eyed child, the contrast between their sizes immediately conveying something tender and strange. The industrial, dimly lit environment surrounding them — all pipes, panels, and a lone glowing canister — gives the scene a quietly melancholic atmosphere that suits the series' title perfectly. Published by Ki-oon's seinen imprint in 2021, this volume promises more of the haunting, beautifully rendered world that makes this manga so compelling.
