His style looks like a more mature version of Kuzuo Umezu's in Scary Book #2 (of which I admitiddly haven't read yet, its collecting dust somewhere.)

I dig it.

Did...did he just divide by zero or something?

Wow.

I'm sorry, I've never heard of Junji Ito before if the dividing by zero thing was meant towards me.

Junji Ito rocks hard. One of the most beautiful/disturbing cartoonists of recent times. The way he balances beauty and the disturbed so perfectly is a sight the behold.

My god, I have never heard of this guy, but I like it. The visuals are fucking amazing.

The cinema adaptation by Iguchinsky is also pretty good. Very faithful to the source material.
