Rivage #4

Volume 4 of Haruko Kashiwagi's Rivage arrives from Éditions Delcourt with a striking close-up of its intense, battle-marked protagonist — dark hair swept back, a bold geometric tattoo marking his face, his bare shoulders radiating an almost ember-like warmth. The cover's tight framing draws you right into his steely gaze, making it easy to understand why this manga series earned a committed French readership. If you've been following the journey so far, this 2007 installment looks ready to push things further.
