About the series
In the neon-lit chaos of a near-future Japan, Smokin' Parade (2017–2022) from Yen Press follows a young man drawn into a secret war against monstrous, artificial beings called "Jackals" that feast on human souls. This gritty, action-horror series, written by Yoshiaki Tabata with art by Atsushi Suzumi, pits a ragtag group of cyborg-enhanced fighters against a shadowy corporation engineering these nightmares. With its breakneck pace and visceral body horror, the series stands out as a dark, stylish thrill ride in the mid-2010s manga landscape.
