The fourty-fourth comic: #967 Attack on Titan
One of the big manga of the moment, Attack on Titan desolate world is worrying on its own. A world roamed by giant (but somewhat mindless) humanoids called titans have driven humanity to live in a corner of the world - little more than a large city and its surrounding fields. At the start, they've had a form of peace for the past century - they're on guard, but the titans have been unable to get to them. As the usual start to a series like this, it all changes one day. They break through one of the walls and it's a disaster for humanity. They rally by giving up a large part of their territory and the comic is about the fight back.
That comes with its twists, as we find out more about what the titans are and where they came from, a story I'm still figuring out as I read this. It's draw with an interesting detail, the humans looking fairly standard for manga but with exquisite, horrid detail put in the titans. They look human, sure, but there's something unsettling about them - from their genderless nudity to visible muscle and probably most disconcerting, the giant grins on their faces. It's over the top and bizarre and it's amazing in setting the tone and atmosphere of the entire work. I want to know more about what's going on now (and have enough of a break now to do some more reading)
