The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service, Vol. 3 (v. 3)
In the first of three more gruesome delights starring Kuro and the gang, Kuro discovers that his ability to communicate with the dead extends to pieces of the dead. Hence his conversations with black-market organs lead the gang to uncover an illegal organ-transplant ring preying on Tokyo's homeless. The crew also takes on a group of murderously desperate computer geeks and solves the mystery of a slate of train-track suicides. Otsuka and Yamazaki's usual blood-and-guts approach hits the dark-comic marks as if it were a sinister Scooby Doo for grown-ups, with even the art moving effortlessly between light and dark extremes. And death is never disrespected. Must reading for those who enjoy ghoulish laughter. Coleman, TinaCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved
