Ishura (Vol. 1)

Who Will Rule After the Demon King Falls?

In a world once ruled by the Demon King, a power vacuum unleashes chaos. In Ishura Vol. 1, warriors of near-godlike power—each with unique abilities, terrifying strength, and legendary reputations—emerge to stake their claim as the next true ruler.

But when everyone is a hero—or a monster—who decides what justice means? And who will survive the trials ahead?

A gritty, beautifully illustrated dark fantasy with intricate world-building, Ishura pits deadly fighters against one another in a grand battle that could reshape existence itself.
