You’ve seen the American film adaptation of the Japanese horror sensation! You may have even seen the original Japanese production! But did you know the films are based on a series of fantastic Japanese novels by Koji Suzuki? The popular novel The Ring has seen the lion’s share of publicity, but that’s not where the story ends. In this adaptation of Suzuki’s next novel Spiral (Rasen in Japanese), the legend of Sadako’s evil takes a scientific turn, as Ryuji Takayama’s old college friend, Mitsuo Ando, must decipher a mysterious code while investigating this strange virus that kills people after watching a video tape. Disbelief gives way to fear. Logic bends to survival. And human evolution changes drastically. What Sadako plans is not simply horror, but something much, much deeper.
The Ring saga continues, twists, and turns in this 192 page manga graphic novel based on Japan’s master of horror and suspense.
