My Gorilla Family

Comprising fourteen mind-melting stories from the early 1970s, Iijima Ichiro’s MY GORILLA FAMILY offers an intimate, profoundly humanistic—and profoundly disturbing—introduction to one of the most bonkers imaginations in the history of Japanese comics. With an essay by wacko-manga archaeologist Onishi Shohei, MY GORILLA FAMILY is the fifth volume of SMUDGE, a line of vintage horror, occult, and dark-fantasy manga curated and translated by award-winning historian Ryan Holmberg.
