Go with the Clouds, North-By-Northwest, Vol. 2

Series by Irie Aki

Overview

The journey along Iceland’s empty coastal roads continues. Kei, a Tokyo photographer seeking quiet, and Hermann, a laconic local detective, edge deeper into the island’s raw interior. Stark black-and-white panels echo the wind-battered lava fields while small-town secrets surface. Dialogue stays sparse; mood carries the story. Volume 2 widens the map, introduces new faces tied to old cases, and keeps answers just out of reach.
