About the series
In this taut 2020–2021 Yen Press miniseries, a mysterious forest in Japan begins granting selected individuals supernatural abilities, but at a terrible cost—each new power comes with a fatal deadline. Written by Sei Natsumishi and illustrated by Shintaro Kago, King of Eden is a three-issue horror-fantasy that explores the dark side of wish fulfillment and the price of survival. Its concise, high-stakes narrative and Kago's surreal, grotesque artwork make it a striking entry in modern manga-inspired comics.
