Sayonara Monsieur Désespoir #11

Volume 11 of Kohji Kumeta's Sayonara Monsieur Désespoir arrives in this 2012 Pika Édition release, its spare, wintry cover setting a quietly melancholic tone — a lone young man in a pale kimono stands amid falling snow, a coiled rope resting near his feet. Kumeta's clean, elegant linework gives the image a haunting stillness that perfectly captures the series' signature blend of dark humor and resignation.
