Berserk, Volume 28

Our heroes are trying to get some rest on the shore of the sea. But Kushan invasion force is near and once ominous fog starts to spread, creatures of terror summoned by Kushan warlocks will soon find themselves on the wrong side of the Guts' sword.

This one is story with more tangible horror feeling than was case with some of the previous volumes. Presence of sea, dark waves of vast sea and impenetrable fog from which horrors emerge bring back the memories of the movie The Fog (Carpenter's one).

Art as always is excellent.

And then there is the kid...... I truly wonder who this will end up being.

This is the 28th volume in the Berserk series. Guts and company are trying to resume their journey to Puck’s elven homeland. Two things happen on this leg of the journey; one is that Casca finds a strange boy on the beach that she seems to share a strong bond with, the second is that they are attacked by lizard monsters.

Guts is still recovering from the horrible wounds he received from Zodd; now he must done the Berserker Armor again to protect his traveling companions. After that battle Guts and companions seek shelter in Vritannis. Schierke wanders off on her own to seek solitude and ends up being befriended by a strange young woman.

I really enjoyed this installment of Berserk. I love that we spent a lot of time with Guts and show more company and enjoyed learning more about Schierke; she is my favorite character in this series right now.

The illustration in this series is top notch and I continue to really enjoy the story. This volume had a lot of action and fighting but wasn’t quite as violent as previous volumes.

Overall this was an awesome installment in the Berserk series. I really continue to enjoy the action, the characters, and the storyline and am excited to see what else this series brings us. show less
