Adult Illiteracy
Oct 10, 2012
Hey team, I've got a friend looking for visual inspiration in horror comics. I've mostly read western stuff and felt comfortable making recommendations there, and obviously mentioned Junji Ito, but I'm also recalling two other manga or manga-styled comics that really left an impact even if I've forgotten the author.

One was like a paneled comic, but each panel was revealed to actually contain the detached body parts/enormous head/ multiple clones as if it were a large room/apartment complex. They get out and crawl around? Did I dream this?

The other is an artist with a hyperviolent style that struggled with schizophrenia, I believe - I mostly remember the impression of the intense gaze of the characters, and some fairly shocking (even to a relatively desensitized palate) and explicit violence. Somebody said it may be suehiro maruo but I'm not seeing any panels I recognize.

Either of these ring a bell? Much appreciated.
