Reine d'Égypte #2

The second volume of Chie Inudoh's ancient Egypt manga arrives with a striking cover: a blue-haired young woman adorned in a golden serpent headdress, scarab pectoral necklace, and striking blue-and-white robes strides forward with fierce intensity, while a composed young man in Egyptian dress follows closely behind her. Inudoh's detailed linework brings both the richness of the period costuming and the characters' contrasting expressions to vivid life. If the first volume caught your attention, this 2017 Ki-oon release makes a compelling case for continuing the journey.
