Description

About the Book

This collected edition of Day of the Flying Head brings together all four issues of Shintaro Kago’s iconic body-horror and sci-fi manga. Inspired by Southeast Asian folklore, the Flying Head — a legendary disembodied spirit — becomes the central figure in this absurd, grotesque, and hyper-detailed narrative universe. Originally published as separate issues and long out of print, this edition offers all chapters in one stitched, softcover volume, printed in A5 format with high-quality black-and-white offset reproduction and full-color flaps. Kago’s unique blend of visual experimentation, anatomical deconstruction, dark humor, and speculative horror is fully on display here, pushing the boundaries of graphic storytelling.
