The Art of Murder Throughout the Centuries

The first half of the book is made up by the titular story, a serial killer thriller that gets all kinds of meta and crazy as it progresses. The second half of the book consists of a short interview with Kago (and Ryuichi Kasumi, a Japanese crime fiction writer) and a number of short stories. (Source: Caterpillar)

Mangaupdates: The rub this time is mazes and visual illusions and jokes. Labyrinth is not graphic or gratuitous, but nudity/sexual imagery permeates throughout and make it NSFW.

This absurdist manga is a mix of the bad taste of John Waters, the the violence of David Lynch and the tragedy of the works of Alejandro Jodorowsky. What happens in front of the station, where all the ordinary people come together? The ultimate eccentric psycho comic!

A collection of oneshots. Chapter One: Imagine, that the roles of whales and humans were swapped. So whales (or whale-like creatures) would be rather small, able to talk and smart. Humans would be large, stupid and hunted by whale-people. Chapter Two: A girl finally visits her boyfriend's parents at their house. For some bizarre reason, every appliance is made of human bodies. When the girls realizes that she too will be turned into an appliance, she attempts to escape her destiny by having sex . . .

A very surreal, episodic manga about Russia. This entire manga is very NSFW, so beware. It contains nudity, violence, gore and bad taste. Read at your own risk.

Includes web series Kago Shintarou no Tsuukai! Rekishi Nyuumon

This is a guro book featuring lots of violence and gore, including some cannibalism. It’s not hentai, but it does have some sex thrown in here and there, mostly rape. It’s set in feudal japan and its central character is an insane sadistic princess with a elite unit of special “hair” ninjas. She gets reckless and draws the attention of the Shogun which leads to a huge clash. Fun book with some grim humor, very graphic and has some disgusting stuff so not for the faint of heart. Some of the contents include torture, lobotomies, cannibalism, warfare, ninja combat, and a “Hell” amusement park. Featuring guest appearances by Jesus, and a clan of ninja descended from Moses!

Brain Damage collects four new short manga stories, a tantalizing blend of the hilarious and the macabre. In “Labyrinth Quartet,” four identical young women trapped in an eerie building must solve the mystery of why they’ve been gathered there — while being hunted by a knife-wielding stalker. In “Curse Room,” a plucky health aide is tasked with keeping zombies peaceful, lest they go on a brain-eating rampage. In “Family Portrait,” people throughout town are strangely disappearing without a trace, and the key to it all is a senile and perverted old man. Finally, in “Blood Harvest” a series of gruesomely mangled bodies are found in pristine cars — and it appears something sinister lurks within these masses of glass and steel.
