About the series
From 2020 to 2021, Vertical published Blood on the Tracks, a four-issue manga series by acclaimed creator Shūzō Oshimi. This tense psychological thriller follows a mother and son as their relationship spirals into an unsettling dynamic of control and devotion. Oshimi’s stark, evocative art deepens the story’s claustrophobic atmosphere, making it a quietly gripping exploration of family bonds and obsession. A stark, character-driven work from a master of the genre, it stands as a haunting addition to his body of work.
