Junji Ito, Terror despedazado núm. 6 de 28

by Junji Ito, Olinda Cordukes Salleras (Translator)

Es probable que las pesadillas sean la experiencia que más nos acerca al terror en nuestra vida cotidiana y este volumen contiene varios ejemplos, como el miedo a quedarse encerrado en un lugar del que no se puede salir en El callejón, la angustia provocada por los laberintos en Un laberinto insoportable, o el pánico a caer al vacío en Caídas. Incluye, entre otros relatos, La abusona, donde una niña cruel se dedica a maltratar a un amigo suyo y Un desertor en casa, una historia de venganza, ambientada en la posguerra e inspirada en la vida de Ana Frank.

Ito was born in Gifu Prefecture, Japan in 1963. He was inspired to make art from a young age by his older sister's drawing and Kazuo Umezu's horror comics. Until the early 1990s he worked as a dental technician, while making comics as a side job. By the time he turned into a full time mangaka, Ito was already an acclaimed horror artists.
His comics are celebrated for their finely depicted body horrors, while also retaining some elements of psychological horror and erotism.

Tomie and Uzumaki in particular have been adapted multiple times in live-action and animation.
