experimental guro manga by Shintaro Kago
this is page 7 from an English "scanlation" of Shintaro Kago's story Abstraction. You can find every page here. Warning: rude words & sexually explicit pictures. It's more about warping the frames than it is about abstract content. Seems to be a raw love story. Guro is a Japanese genre with plenty of blood, gore, nudity & shock.

classics! I enjoy Kago's works very much. after seeing these, lots of comics look so "flat".
ReplyDeleteThis is really fascinating me. Not the story, not at all. But the framing or should I say the shelfing ... Great!
ReplyDeleteThis was amazing! And yes, it is warping the way I read "flat" comics now. Suddenly everything looks like shelving.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I liked the naughty bits too. Sometimes, I swear, I think I am stuck at age 14. :-)
shelving - yes, of course! Even my English is improving ...
ReplyDeletejust found a post by Scott McCloud about Shintaro Kago which includes a page from Abstraction, back in April: http://scottmccloud.com/category/experimental-comics/
