Blood Lad

From 2012 to 2017, Yen Press published Blood Lad, a nine-issue manga series that blends supernatural action with deadpan comedy. The story follows Staz, a vampire boss of a demon territory who is obsessed with Japanese pop culture, and his unlikely quest to help a ghost girl regain her humanity. Best known for the work of creator Yuuki Kodama, the series stands out for its playful subversion of vampire tropes and its energetic, character-driven chaos within a sprawling demon world.
