Two New Vinland Saga Manga Deluxe Editions Are Releasing This Year https://ift.tt/cpK02qG
Manga publisher Kodansha is launching the next entries in the Vinland Saga: Deluxe Edition manga series with Deluxe Edition 7 and Deluxe Edition 8 later this year. Vinland Saga: Deluxe Edition 7 is currently scheduled to arrive on May 6 and is priced at $49.50, while Vinland Saga: Deluxe Edition 8 will land on August 5 and is priced at $55. Preorders for both releases are now available at Amazon.
Like the previous releases, Vinland Saga Deluxe Edition 7 and Deluxe Edition 8 are oversized 7 x 10" format books. Both volumes are roughly 600 pages long and include several exclusive sketches and drafts from illustrator Makoto Yukimura that you won't find in the other manga editions.
Vinland Saga: Deluxe Edition 7 covers volumes 19-21 of the original manga and features a dark green leather-patterned cover with stamped Norse runes. Preorders are discounted to $49.40 at Amazon (normally $55) ahead of its May 6 release date.
Vinland Saga: Deluxe Edition 8 contains volumes 22-24 and launches on August 5. In the manga source material, these are the volumes that wrapped up the Eastern Expedition arc and saw the start of the Vinland story arc. While the final cover art has not been revealed, we assume it will match the style of the other Deluxe Editions with its own unique color. Preorders are available for $55 at Amazon.
Vinland Saga is a critically acclaimed manga series that started back in 2005. The series initially covered the journey of Thorfinn, a young warrior who had joined up with a band of mercenaries so that he could get revenge on its leader, Askeladd, for the death of his father. While these early storylines were action-heavy tales of intrigue and war, Vinland Saga would evolve and use these bloody tales to ask questions about the nature of conflict, revenge, and finding a better way to solve problems, particularly in the Slave arc. The storytelling has been widely praised over the years, but its historical attention to detail and Makoto's incredible artwork have also been big draws. If you'd like to read it for yourself, the other hardcover Deluxe Editions are discounted at Amazon.
