Neon Genesis Evangelion #2

Looming over the cover of this 2004 Swedish edition from Bonnier Carlsen, the massive form of Evangelion Unit-01 dominates the background in deep green and black, while two young figures — a dark-haired girl in red and a brown-haired boy in a pilot suit — are drawn together in the foreground. Yoshiyuki Sadamoto's cover art, both penciled and inked by his own hand, captures the uneasy tension between the human and the mechanical with striking clarity. With chapter seven — "Kapitel 7: Själen som sluts" — this volume continues the collaboration between Sadamoto and GAINAX that made Neon Genesis Evangelion one of manga's most enduring series.
