Comic Valkyrie’s Web edition drops Vol.148—and it’s free to read. The headliner is a brand-new series about a burned-out game designer forced to run a bottom-tier dungeon and claw his way up with pure “corporate survivor” skills. Alongside it, buzz titles like Drawing and the long-awaited second chapter of ATM Oji-san keep the momentum high. Here’s a fast guide to what to sample first and where to click.
Start here: Vol.148’s new series and why it hooks fast
The launch title—Dungeon Lord Uprising (long title abbreviated)—opens on a designer who wakes up as the master of the worst dungeon on the chart. Expect workplace satire retooled as dungeon management: resource triage, risk logs, incremental wins, and an underdog “optimize or die” vibe. It’s an easy on-ramp if you love build-and-manage fantasy.
From bottom-tier pit to power play: the core appeal
What sells the opener is the contrast: garbage starting point × sharp optimization brain. The art leans into multi-track tasks (traps, staffing, layout), while the script turns “corporate grind” into crunchy upgrade beats. If min-maxing your way out of a hole sounds fun, this is your page-one pick.
Fan favorites return: Drawing, ATM Oji-san, and more
Drawing — The Strongest Mangaka: meta-isekai energy stays high as “art skills = battle output” keeps escalating. Watch for panel-composition gags turned into combat.
ATM Oji-san — Moteki Never Stops! (Ch.2): the awaited second chapter lands; comedy rides on absurd “cash-card charisma” and fish-out-of-water flirting.
Plus Valkyrie staples this issue: dungeon/demon-lord management, revenge-route fantasies, alchemy shop life, shark-meets-isekai chaos, and more.
