Stack Clean: Initial D / Kaina of the Great Snow Sea FCBD

This FCBD issue published by Kodansha included short excerpts from Initial D and Kaina of the Great Snow Sea.

I normally only read digitally, but I picked up some comics for Free Comic Book Day earlier this year. Today I had the time to read through one of the issues.

This one, published by Kodansha, included short excerpts from Initial D and Kaina of the Great Snow Sea.

I was open to being won over by characters or another hook by Initial D, but my antipathy for cars made this comic fall very flat for me.

Kaina of the Great Snow Sea, however, was engaging from the start. Some compelling world building and mystery had me hooked for this short section of the first volume and I’d be open to reading the full thing.
