MoMo -the Blood Taker- #8

Volume 8 of Akira Sugito's MoMo -the Blood Taker- announces itself with quietly menacing confidence — a sharp-eyed, bespectacled man with elaborate paisley neck tattoos and a dark gloved hand raised toward the viewer, his unsettling smirk suggesting he holds all the cards. Sugito's two-tone palette of gold, black, and dusky rose gives the composition an almost art-nouveau elegance that makes the threat feel all the more stylish. If you've been following this series, volume 8 looks like a deeply satisfying next chapter.
