Soara and the House of Monsters #2

Volume 2 of Hidenori Yamaji's Soara and the House of Monsters leaps off the page with the hammer-wielding, horned-helmet-wearing young hero Soara diving dramatically down toward a sprawling, dungeon-like structure lit by glowing lava cracks below. A girl with animal ears stands in the courtyard while another small figure consults a map nearby — all set against a moonlit sky above what looks like an elaborately dangerous fortress full of spikes, skulls, and winding staircases. Yamaji's intricate, layered artwork gives this 2024 Seven Seas release the feel of a grand adventure waiting to unfold.
