I have been putting off reading Devilman, I am not a fan of the artwork in the newer books. The super cartoony style in the older books is really jarring with the suprisingly grim subject matter. Read the inspiration behind the Rob Zombie song!
Go Nagai’s groundbreaking horror classic that inspired the genre for decades. Hordes of demons, once thought entombed forever in the underworld, have now returned to Earth. Evil and corruption begin to seep into our world, as demons seize human hosts. Mankind’s only hope for salvation is to use the demons’ power against them–-and only a pure-hearted man like Fudo Akira can do so without losing his humanity. Once little more than a crybaby, Akira now wields the terrible power of a devil, yet holds the innocent soul of a man–-Devilman!
