Secret Comics Japan

An anthology of all-new underground comics from Japan produced in the ’80s and ’90s by the latest generation of taboo-breaking manga artists! Selected by the former editor of Garo, Japan’s standard-bearer of underground comics since 1964, this collection introduces new artists who have not been discussed in the previous literature on the field (such as Manga! Manga!, Dreamland Japan, and Comix Underground Japan). From the surreally beautiful to the graphically gruesome, this book will be of interest to all fans of cutting-edge art and comics.
