A weaker retelling, I would recommend reading the original Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. But the artwork is amazing as is always the case with Junji Ito, so if you go into it for that, I don't think that you will be disappointed.

The first half is the story of Frankenstein and the rest is a collection of stories.  Art is a 10/10 as always, he is a master at horror.

I just wanna say that Junji Ito is so cool cause he can take something that on a surface level, seems absolutely ridiculous, and treat it so deadly seriously that you go from 'haha what' to just 'what'.
