僕が死ぬだけの百物語 [Boku ga Shinu dake no Hyakumonogatari] #8

Two pale, hollow-eyed figures — one clutching the other with bloodied hands against a stark white background — set an immediately unsettling tone on this eighth volume of Anji Motano's supernatural anthology series from Shogakukan. The raw, delicate linework and the characters' haunted expressions capture the melancholy dread that defines Boku ga Shinu dake no Hyakumonogatari, a series built around one hundred ghost stories bound by death. If you've been following this run, volume eight promises more of the quietly devastating atmosphere that makes this series so compelling.
