Dark Horse Takes on Horror

[Heuzel]

New Manga from Dark Horse Focus on Horror - Juon, Lullabies from Hell, School Zone and More

Michael Gombos, Japanese licensing manager at Dark Horse, has announced a number of new titles that Dark Horse has picked up.

Juon
Lullabies from Hell by Hideshi Hino (one shot)
Museum of Terror by Junji Ito
Scary Books by Kazuo Umezu
School Zone by Kanako Inuki
Octopus Girl by Toru Yamazaki
Satsuma Gishiden by Hiroshi Hirata
Old Boy by Garon Tsuchiya and Nobuaki Minegishi

In addition to these manga, Gombos also says that Dark Horse will be releasing the three-volume Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex novel series, by Jun'ichi Fujisaku, one of the Stand Alone Complex TV series script writers.

At this time we are not certain if the Juon manga is the Juon -video side- manga by Rinno Miki and Shimizu Takashi, or another manga.

Oh, so Dark Horse is doing Juon? What's the point? I know The Ring manga's already out... erm... whatever.

I'll keep an eye out for the new manga though. I wonder what Satsuma Gishiden is about... ;_; nothing new by Kentaro Miura though.

They need to speed up with Berserk English translations. Still only on vol 8 here in the UK...
