Soloist in a Cage #3

Volume 3 of Shiro Moriya's Soloist in a Cage arrives from Ki-oon with a striking cover that says everything about the series' tone: a pale-haired figure in a dark cape tumbles through a grey urban skyline, one hand outstretched as feathers and debris drift around them against a deep blue backdrop. There's a tension between freedom and falling here that feels central to what this manga is about. If you've been following this dystopian series, volume 3 looks set to keep the atmosphere as charged and unsettling as ever.
