My Home Hero #18

Volume 18 of Naoki Yamakawa and Masashi Asaki's My Home Hero arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the series' quiet-but-dangerous tension — an ordinary-looking man in a white dress shirt and burgundy tie pulls back his jacket with steely, determined eyes that suggest there's nothing ordinary about him at all. Asaki's restrained, realistic linework makes that contrast hit even harder, the mundane office-worker exterior barely concealing something far more resolute beneath. If you've been following this thriller from Kurokawa, volume 18 is exactly the kind of entry that reminds you why this series keeps you turning pages.
