Sex & Fury Omnibus - Bonten Taro (2014)

Bonten Tarô, manga artist, tattoo genius, and singer, left behind a rich and varied body of manga. Le Lézard Noir has compiled a selection of these works under the title Sex and Fury – a reference to the film adaptation of one of Bonten Tarô's stories. The collection transports us into the seedy underworld of the Japanese underworld – closely linked to tattooing – where the master Bonten readily plays with the tropes of B-movie yakuza films. We also discover remarkable ghost stories, a surprising dive into the Pacific War, and the account of the suicide of writer Yukio Mishima, all accompanied by the author's most beautiful covers and stunning photographs of tattoos.
