SO one evening I read the horror manga Gyo by Junji Ito - which honestly, the first time I heard his name, I was confused about the idea of 'Judge Ito" writing horror manga. "The Judge of the OJ Simpson trial?" Yeah. It took me a moment.
-What I expected: "SCARY SPOOKINESS"
-What I got: "HIDEO KOJIMA LEVELS OF GOOFINESS"
But then again- taking scary things completely out of context is what makes Halloween so fun, no?

A lot of Junji Ito's stories are this mix of horror and silliness. Sometimes there's good pure horror, but often times it just goes down into goofy endings lmao.
btw if you're still interested in checking out more of his stuff, I recommend reading his take on the original Frankenstein story! probably the best graphic novel version of the original book by Mary Shelly (that I've seen at least).

Hehe, that moment when you go kind of neat art and story and then later down the line you wonder...wtf am I reading.
Also why is it the fa watch system hates you when it comes to notifying me of stuff you uploaded and journals you done. Seriously for like years it hasn't done a single hey this guy did something till literally..today and I forgot a bit about ya and just figured you wasn't uploading till now.

Japanese manga is really weird because they don't take the time to understand what the hell they are writing about, like Quaballah runes in a Japanese hero group of police detectives with katanas attacking witches in drag, as a for instance. Weird on a scale of one to ten they are usually 15! plus they use all four types of Japanese Characters in their comics fro different things in the same language but with hiragama or kenji I forget what the other two are called.
You forgot too mention that they were basically all zombies. But yeah you nailed the full concept of the comic right here.
Like you I was suckered by the giant sharks with spider legs >A<
So disappointing. I want some land shark slaughter, like Tremors meets Jaws and Deep Blue Sea.
