“Good luck finding better mutant nightmare comics.” – Mat Brinkman

Tetsunori Tawaraya is a Japanese artist, illustrator, comic author, and musician whose intricate, biomech-infused visuals blend cyberpunk, sci-fi, and psychedelic horror. Since the early 2000s, his work has been featured in international publications such as Hollow Press, Le Dernier Cri, and Bongoût, and exhibited in Japan, Europe, and the U.S. He is also known as a noise-rock performer and co-founder of the band 2up. His style is instantly recognizable for its dense textures, alien figures, and neon detail.
