Vous l'aurez bien compris, Priest est un manhwa que je vous conseille vivement de lire, surtout si vous aimez les scénarios sombres, avec des zestes de Western et quelques grammes d'Apocalypse, mais aussi par ces forts moments que devra affronter notre cher Ivan Isaak.
Salut a tous, je connait priest depuis un petit moment maintenant (car on m'avait offert les 3° tomes) mais je n'avais jamais pris le temp d'y faire attention (lecture en diagonal etc..) mais pendant un sejour j'ai lu les 3 premier et j'ai meme acheter le 4°, et j'ai acrocher tout de suite, ambiance, dessin,histoire..
Sinon triste nouvelle pour Priest a laché depuis le tome 16 pour se consacrer à un autre manwha et donc on a rattrapé les Coréens, il va donc falloir attendre très longtemps avant que l'auteur s'y remette et que l'on puisse avoir le tome 17 !
