Author Biography Shintaro Kago is a manga artist who has gained a cult following for his transgressive work marked by horror, sci-fi, psychedelic erotica, and a keen sense of the grotesque. His comics include Fraction (2009), Super-Dimensional Love Gun (2019), and Dementia 21 (2020). He lives in Tokyo. Review Charming, hilarious, and thought-provoking. Dementia 21 proves that Kago is a cutting satirist with a deft touch for black comedy.-- "Broken Frontier" Long Description Arthritic superheroes! Supernatural old biddies! Zombie caretakers!

Review Quote Showing influences from Salvador Dali to Katsuhiro Otomo, the combination of Kagos precise, expressive, and kinetic line work with his wacky storytelling is at turns engrossing and repulsive. Mature fans of unconventional manga will appreciate the surreal spiral of body horror, tragicomedy, and dark humor.-- "Publishers Weekly" Details ISBN1683967496 Short Title Dementia 21 Box Set Pages 600 Series Dementia 21 Language English Year 2023 ISBN-10 1683967496 ISBN-13 9781683967491 Format Paperback Author Shintaro Kago Publisher Fantagraphics Imprint Fantagraphics Place of Publication Seattle Country of Publication United States NZ Release Date 2023-08-08 US Release Date 2023-08-08 Publication Date 2023-08-08 UK Release Date 2023-08-08 Subtitle Vols. 1 & 2 Audience General AU Release Date 2023-10-18 Illustrations 600 Illustrations We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
