Scary Lessons #6

Volume 8 of Emi Ishikawa's Scary Lessons delivers the series' signature blend of horror and dark school-life tension, and this cover makes the mood unmistakably clear. A wide-eyed schoolgirl in a torn blue uniform stares out from behind a tangle of crime-scene tape, her golden eyes and blood-spattered surroundings setting a genuinely unsettling tone. If you've been following this French-published manga run from Tonkam, 2012 brought another compelling chapter in this creepy anthology series.
