Monster X Monster #2

The second volume of Nikiichi Tobita's seinen series brings an immediate jolt of energy, with a wide-eyed young traveler — pink scarf flying, katana at his side — scrambling urgently away from a massive, armor-scaled blue dragon that looms imposingly behind him. The contrast between the creature's hulking menace and the human's startled dash makes for a cover that's hard to look away from. Published in 2017 by Ki-oon, Monster X Monster is shaping up to be a thrilling manga for anyone drawn to adventure steeped in creature lore.
