I got this off a list of recommended graphic novel lists and I'm glad I did! The artwork is amazing but truly the storytelling is creative, original and works completely from start to end, I'd recommend to any comic book fan.

I'm halfway through Uzumaki and I'm bursting out laughing at the increasingly ridiculous stories I'm reading... This reminds me more of 'Tales from the Crypt' rather than the actual horror manga it's being advertised as...

I'm not much of a reader, I read maybe a novella or two a year. I haven't read a manga since maybe 2006. I could not put this down, save for a few minutes between chapters to process the sheer terror of what I'd just seen. I finished it entirely in a day and may go back and read it again tomorrow. This is a masterpiece of horror. I will warn, this is NOT for children, and certainly not for anyone who is uncomfortable with body horror. I had never heard of Junji Ito before. I've always loved horror and have been replaying Bloodborne when I decided to try reading Berzerk as I know that manga was a big inspiration for Miyazaki. As I browsed that listing I saw a suggestion for Tomie, the cover drew me in, and then this caught my eye. I regret nothing. Lately I've been reading Lovecraft... This was far more disturbing, like Lovecraft meets Silent Hill. The pace is perfect, the stakes are always somehow raised, and every time you think "how can this get any more crazy" it just does. MINOR SPOILER: I remember thinking on page 34 after something strange happens "Wow, having something that weird so early is pretty brave, how do you keep escalating from this?" I was not disappointed. This story has quickly risen to my favourites list. Top 5 to be sure. Physically the book is great, paper is thick and sturdy, printing is clear and sharp. My only complaint is that the pages will not stay open on their own like the Berzerk deluxe hardcover. I think this uses glue binding and the Berzerk is stitched. TLDR - still a better love story than Twilight.
