Sky Hawk #[nn]

Two riders on horseback command the foreground of Jiro Taniguchi's cover — a determined warrior carrying a feathered lance leads the charge, with a younger companion close behind, both figures set against a sweeping blue sky as a mass of galloping riders fills the dusty terrain below. The Japanese title 天の鷹 and the bold "Sky Hawk" lettering frame this vision of the American frontier rendered through Taniguchi's precise, expressive linework. Published in 2010 by Schreiber & Leser, this is a handsome volume for anyone drawn to thoughtful cross-cultural storytelling where East meets West on the open plains.
