From the publisher:
KRRRAK BOOM!! A young woman is struck dead by a bolt of lightning. But then a miracle-her charred body rises into the air and absorbs an eerie orb of light. When the girl comes back to life, she discovers that she possesses amazing telepathic powers. She can move objects. She can force people to do things against their will. She can see the future. She can even raise the dead!
Originally published in 1987, THE GIRL WHO RAISED THE DEAD marks the triumphant return of cult horror legend Kawashima Norikazu. Drawn a year after his masterpiece HER FRANKENSTEIN, this brutal yet charming manga shows Kawashima wickedly slathering teen paranormal magic in slasher gore. THE GIRL WHO RAISED THE DEAD is the sixth volume of SMUDGE, a series of vintage horror, occult, and dark fantasy manga from the publisher Living the Line.
GIRL WHO RAISED takes the two popular eighties genres of telekinesis and the slasher genre and merges them into a off-beat, seamless whole, all with Kawashima's fatalism and dark psychological analysis at its heart.
The book features a thorough essay examining the book in the company of the genres which it makes use of (and ultimately dismantles).
