Would you become a hero?

Parasites are no laughing matter, especially when their origin is alien. Parasyte focuses on an alien invasion where aliens bond with humans and wreak havoc. But one alien, Migi, fails his mission and bonds to the arm of high school student, Shinichi Izumi, and our story unfolds.

While the symbiotic relationship between Migi and Shinchi adds some nice comic relief, creator Hitoshi Iwaaki does a phenomenal job of creating a beautifully drawn world littered with scenes of body horror unlike any series you’ve read before.

A list of manga horror wouldn’t be complete without Toyko Ghoul and the story of Ken Kaneki. Living in a world where factions of ghouls hunt humans, Kaneki’s fate is sealed after a bad date turns worse and leads to an organ transplant from one of these ghouls.
