OverviewThe tale of William Tell has never been rendered as beautifully as in Mitsuhisa Kuji's stunning debut work Wolfsmund, where a fortified way-station torments the Swiss district of Uri murdering all who stand against it, until William and his son attempt to defy it. With the flanks of the Wolf's Maw falling one-by-one, now the ominous fortress itself is in the crosshairs of a dual-threat of Canton allies. Lead by new forms of weapon's technology, canton rebels are willing to risk countless lives for one last chance at freedom. And with Walter Tell literally climbing the walls of the Wolfsmund, it seems inevitable that the barrier station will fall. But before that happens, Wolfsram will unleash more than a few more devious tricks from his already deep arsenal. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Mitsuhisa KujiPublisher: Vertical Inc.

However, Kuji is a smarter storyteller than that.” —The Fandom Post “While the magnificent bastard is an old cliche of film and fiction, I have yet to see one executed so well in manga… Part of what makes the magnificent bastard so fun to read is the eventual failure he or she will commit.” —Manga Widget There is a threat of Wolfsmund being a one-trick story, where we might guess that each chapter will end in despair.

While Wolfsmund is her debut series, originally published in Japan by esteemed indie comic publisher and video game taste-makers, enterbrain!, she has been in the industry at least since 2004, mainly working on short stories with the ambition to someday have her own feature length seres. But before she began working on her own short stories, she was the assistant illustrator for two of the biggest names in comic art - Kentaro Miura (author of the best-selling series BERSERK) and Kaoru Mori (creator of the Victorian maid drama, EMMA). Since her debut work, ""Samurai Dream"", she has gone to draw a handful of other shorts, collected in a book called Luminous & Brightness, before launching Wolfsmund to critical acclaim in 2009.
