Betwixt: A Horror Manga Anthology

Betwixt: A Horror Manga Anthology unites acclaimed manga creators from Japan and the United States for a chilling international showcase of terror. Collected together for the first time, these six short stories explore the universal dread found in the liminal space between the known and the unknown, asking whether anyone can truly cross that terrifying border. The volume is elevated by a foreword and exclusive cover art from global horror phenomenon Junji Ito. The anthology features distinct contributions from award-winning talents on both sides of the Pacific. Ryo Hanada, creator of Devil’s Line; Aki Shimizu, known for the Suikoden III manga; and Shima Shinya, the mind behind Lost Lad London and cowriter of Star Wars: The High Republic – The Edge of Balance, each deliver uniquely Japanese tales of ghosts and creatures existing unseen alongside humanity. They are joined by American creative duo Becky Cloonan and Michael Conrad, cowriters of Wonder Woman and Batgirls, as well as Leslie Hung, cocreator of Snotgirl, Sloane Leong, creator of A Map to the Sun, and rising talent Hua Hua Zhu. Together, this international lineup rounds out the collection with unsettling narratives designed to leave readers deeply paranoid about who—or what—they might encounter next.
