Bastard (WEBTOON) Vol. 4

Bastard (WEBTOON) Vol. 4 continues the harrowing psychological thriller that began online and now unfolds in print. Jin Seon, a sickly high school student, lives under the shadow of his father - a notorious serial killer who forced him into years of complicity. In this trade paperback, the chilling tension escalates as Jin struggles to break free, even as his girlfriend Kyun is hunted and his friend Manny is crippled by the family's secrets. With finances cut off and no safe haven left, Jin faces the ultimate test: can he outrun the darkness at home, or is he fated to inherit his father's violence? Carnby Kim's taut writing paired with Youngchan Hwang's claustrophobic artwork delivers relentless suspense, moral ambiguity, and a haunting question: at what point does a victim become a killer? This volume advances the Bastard saga while preserving its brutal, unforgettable mood.
