Description
H.P. Lovecraft's The Call of Cthulhu (Manga) brings to life Lovecraft's most famous horror story, rendered in chilling detail by modern manga horror master Gou Tanabe!
This complete graphic novel is presented in one volume. It faithfully reproduces the original Japanese release, featuring a title page in silver ink, eight pages in full colour, and eerie metallic copper tones with spot colour on the cover.
What links together two bands of worshippers, one deep in the Arctic snows and the other hidden in the bayous of Louisiana, is more than their shared practice of blood sacrifice. It is the inhuman phrase they both chant: Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn—"In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming."
Now, these nightmares will disturb the sanity of Francis Thurston, a young man pursuing an investigation into the cult of Cthulhu that leads to the most forsaken spot in the vast Pacific... and to Earth's supreme terror, the risen corpse-city of R'lyeh.
First published in 1928, The Call of Cthulhu, rendered in chilling detail by modern manga horror master Gou Tanabe, is the most famous of all H.P. Lovecraft's stories and was the namesake of the acclaimed role-playing game system set within the Cthulhu Mythos.
"I love H.P. Lovecraft... It would be great to adapt him as a serialised manga, but I actually saw Gou Tanabe create a great adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's stories. Afterwards, I ended up not doing it because I thought I wouldn't be as good as Gou's version." - Junji Ito (Uzumaki, Black Paradox)
