Japanese folk monsters and medical illustration...two great tastes that go great together! Japanese manga artist Shigeru Mizuki published a book called Yōkai Daizukai, an illustrated guide to yōkai which details the inner workings of the monsters in my nightmares. My favorite: the Kijimunaa: a forest sprite with ball bearing eyes and a specialized mouth adapted to eat it’s favorite snack– the eyeballs of fish.
