dvo reviewed Frankenstein by Junji Itō (Viz signature)
Review of 'Frankenstein' on 'GoodReads'
4 stars
I definitely enjoyed the Oshikiri anthology more than the Frankenstein adaptation.
Paperback, 408 pages
Japanese language
Published June 20, 2013 by Asahi Shimbun.
"Junji Ito meets Mary Shelley! The master of horror manga bends all his skill into bringing the anguished and solitary monster--and the fouler beast who created him--to life with the brilliantly detailed chiaroscuro he is known for. Also included are six tales of Oshikiri--a high school student who lives in a decaying mansion connected to a haunted parallel world. Uncanny doppelgangers, unfortunately murdered friends, and a whole lot more are in store for him. Bonus: The Ito family dog! Thrill to the adventures of Non-non Ito, an adorable Maltese!"--
