UNCIVILIZED BOOKS
StockID: 164696 SKU: 1025UB1052
Humans grow and age. They change. But always we are the same person- the same creature. Not so with insects- whose powers of metamorphosis alter not only their shape and size- but also their very beings. And now- because of one young man's unhealthy obsession with bugs- humans also find themselves transformed into disgusting- decrepit- bloodsucking insect monsters! Published in 1975- Koga Shinichi's MANSECT is a shonen horror classic by one of the undisputed masters of the genre. Swarming with mesmerizingly gnarly imagery and freakish bio-evolutionary speculation- Koga here demonstrates why his name is uttered with the same quivering reverence as horror manga legends Mizuki Shigeru- Umezz Kazuo- and Ito Junji. MANSECT is the third volume of SMUDGE- a line of vintage horror- occult- and dark fantasy manga- curated and translated by award-winning historian Ryan Holmberg.
