Three Kingdoms #1

Three portraits of armored warriors — one stern-faced in green, one commanding at center, and one broad-featured in red — emerge from a bold circular vignette on this vivid green cover, immediately evoking the epic rivalries at the heart of China's most celebrated historical saga. Three Kingdoms Vol. 1 launches JR Comics' 2013 adaptation of the legendary tale, with writer Wei Dong Chen working from Guan Zhong Luo's foundational text and artist Xiao Long Liang handling both pencils and inks. Set against the tumult of 184–189 AD, this opening chapter promises the intrigue, brotherhood, and battlefield drama that have made the Three Kingdoms story endure for centuries.
