GANGSTA. 1
by Kohske
I heard this mentioned in a fan group and had to check it out. I haven't read a lot of Seinen manga but this one is top notch for me. The art is fresh, and the story is just sharp enough to follow but vague enough to not know who to root for yet - although you have a good sense it's the guys on the cover. They do not have clean hands by any means. You have to be okay with some crime to find them in the least redeemable - I am, and I do.
What stands out most to me is Nicolas' communication. With his speaking bubbles in black, and with mismatched font when he actually speaks, it's a top notch idea, and highlights disability in a way I haven't yet seen in this genre. Coupled with the fact that he's supremely and mysteriously powerful, he makes for an intriguing character I want to get to know.
