H.P. Lovecraft is widely considered to have been one of America's most talented masters of fiction horror novels. From The Call of Cthullu to The Colour Out of Space, his stories remain celebrated across the world almost a century after his passing.
Manga fans who are interested in H.P. Lovecraft are more than likely familiar with the work of Gou Tanabe, who has adapted many of Lovecraft's works. Including but not limited to, Tanabe created the following adaptations: H.P. Lovecraft's The Hound and Other Stories (The Hound, The Temple, Nameless City), At the Mountains of Madness, The Colour Out of Space, The Outsider, The Haunter of the Dark, and The Shadow Out of Time.
Tanabe's most recent manga adaptation is H.P. Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth and is due out next month. It will debut on May 12th in the June issue of Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Beam.
