Jen's Pick

Kabuki Vol. 1 Circle of Blood TP

Collecting all six issues of the first Kabuki series plus the hard to find prequel one-shot with new pages of art from scenes that for space reasons were left out of the original story. It also includes in-depth notes and story analysis about the subtext of the story. Circle of Blood recounts the origins of the government operative known as Kabuki who works in Japan's near future, It's an exploration of the relationship between Japan's government and organized crime on a truly epic scale!

This is one of the first comics I even read; I was first attracted by the watercolor-style artwork, but soon learned that there was an intricate story behind that beautiful art.
