I suspect you might not be surprised to hear that this is a loose adaptation of Shakespeare's play. It tries to go a bit closer to what little we know about the historical Macbeth, and also to give Lady Macbeth (Gruoch) a bit more of a role, but he broad strokes are still much as the play was, and it even includes some of the play's more famous lines. That last bit was a little odd to translate too. The author's foreword says that they used Victor Hugo's son's translation of the play as a source, and changed them round, but I found for the most part they were straight quotes. However it posed a bit of a problem in translation, I don't know how 'modern' that French translation would be compared to a contemporary French translation of the play, I don't know of a 'modernised' 1860s English version of the play and I certainly wouldn't want to try it myself, so I used mainly the original, but left the foreword in anyway.

“Do you want your passport back?” He stared straight at her eyes that were clearly shining under her short bangs. “…Give it back.” “Then you will have to work hard for it.” While she was chewing the meat in her mouth hard, the next piece of meat came into her mouth right after. Avoiding it was not as simple because she thought the fork would become a weapon in this man’s hand. The meat that she barely chewed and fell over her neck in chunks. “What should I do to get it back?” “While growing up, did no adults tell you this? You can’t just say what you want, so don’t say it like that.” A large chunk of meat could not fall over and felt stuck somewhere in her throat. Sarin clenched her fist and tapped her chest. “Hmm…” “Well, if you’d just spent that money on laundry, we wouldn’t have had a chance to face each other like this. Don’t you think so?” It was a simple favour until the money was received, and then it was malice. Owen’s interest borders on malice. His golden eyes glistened. It looked like a completely crazy look, it gave her goosebumps from the inside of her wrist. “…My flight is just around the corner. I have to go back.” Not interested in feeding anymore, he laid down his fork carelessly. She could hear the sound of metal hitting the plate. “That’s your situation.” Word is that her situation is not over yet.

He just dared to think that he needed to get back his first love that had been taken away from him. It was all that. However, in her eyes, he was nothing more than a person who could help her feel less lonely. “You must be lonely.” As the pot returned to the induction and its level increased, a subtle vibration permeated between the silence of the two. Lee Jaehyun rose from his seat, his gaze fixed on her with an enigmatic look. “Me?” “You know what kind of guy I am.” “So what?” “Why do you treat me well when you know that I’m a different person on the outside and the inside? Maybe that day… Did you see it?” Lee Jaehyun’s voice and eyes changed. He closed in on her, ensnaring her within his arms. Eungyo’s body, which was turned away from him, stiffened up, giving her chilling goosebumps on the back of her neck. “I have a liking for you, Senior. It was love at first sight.” A languid voice sank into her ear. It was also a voice that was contrived, mischievously twisted, and did not express any sincerity. “We would have already been sleeping together if you had gone on a blind date with me.”

the entire dramatic story of Batman's first year fighting crime

Get inside the mind of a professional assassin, a man of few scruples, nerves of steel, and a steady trigger finger. A man whose crimes might be catching up with him. A man on the verge of cracking… After misadventures in Central and South America and having earned enough money to retire comfortably, the Killer retires to Mexico, but his colleagues are still in need of his irreplaceable skills… and before long he’s drawn back into the great geopolitical game between Cuba, Venezuela, and the United States.

*Punisher MAX* is a raw, uncompromising take on Frank Castle that strips away the superhero gloss and plunges into the grimy underbelly of real-world crime. Written by Garth Ennis, it reimagines the Punisher as a war-hardened vigilante in a world without capes—just mobsters, traffickers, war criminals, and the corrupt systems that protect them. The series is brutal, grounded, and emotionally heavy, with violence that feels punishing rather than flashy. What makes it stand out isn’t just the carnage, but the psychological weight Castle carries, the bleak morality of his mission, and the haunting question it leaves hanging: what’s left of a man when revenge is all that drives him? If you’re into dark, hard-hitting crime stories with no punches pulled, Punisher MAX hits like a sledgehammer.

Jonah Hex (2006–2011) is a gritty, violent, and beautifully told Western that doesn’t try to romanticize the Old West—it drags it through the mud and blood where it belongs. Each issue is a mostly self-contained tale following Jonah Hex, a scarred, sharp-shooting bounty hunter with a code of honor buried under layers of cynicism and gun smoke. Writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, along with standout artists like Darwyn Cooke and Jordi Bernet, deliver everything from brutal showdowns to tragic morality plays, painting the frontier as a lawless place where justice is often just another name for revenge. If you like your stories hard-boiled, your protagonists morally complex, and your violence unflinching, this run of Jonah Hex is a criminally underrated gem.

To return to the real world, he must find the hidden ending. Will Yeon Sunwoo be able to escape the game?
