Zenbu by Katsuya Terada






Size: 7.5” x 8” - Pages: 396 - Published: 2003 - Price: $65 - Binding: Softcover

This is a crazy, incredible book from the disturbingly animated mind of Katsuya Terada. Terada's incorporates Japanese Manga's wide eyed astonishment in his girls, but their innocence is tinged with pointed evil. His heroes are not dainty, they are reminiscent of Frank Miller's Sin City, but with definite Japanese flair. He delves into realms of Fantasy and Sci-Fi as well as robotics and android - bio creations. Rather tank girl-esque. The first 300 pages are full color, the book turns right to left, Japanese style, and he ends it with 100 pages of sketches. Very well done, very thought provoking (not to mention at least 1000 great tattoo ideas) If you are looking for some great new Japanese eye candy, pick this up.
