Overview

A deluxe hardcover edition of Kazuo Umezz's Eisner Award-nominated classic collection of horror stories featuring a strange cat-eyed boy, shunned by humans and demons alike.

Hated by humans and demons alike, Cat-Eyed Boy dwells in the shadows of the human world. Wherever he goes, disturbing tales of both men and monsters begin to unfurl.

From the mind of Kazuo Umezz, undisputed master of Japanese horror manga and creator of The Drifting Classroom and Orochi, comes Cat-Eyed Boy! This deluxe second volume picks up where volume 1 left off, with Cat-Eyed Boy trying to stop the Band of 100 Monsters from taking gruesome revenge on the corrupt humans who have made them outcasts. Then, Cat-Eyed Boy continues to travel between the lands of humans and demons in six more disturbing tales, including “The Stairs,” in which Cat-Eyed Boy helps a child say a last goodbye to his deceased mother, and “The Thousand-Handed Demon,” in which a woman trying to bring a deity to life gets a lot more than she bargained for.
