Featuring seven stories by Japan's beloved monster master Shigeru Mizuki, Kitaro's Yokai Battles features some of Kitaro's strangest foes yet-including his good pal Nezumi Otoko, who decides that he should be the star of the comic! But enemies seem to be all Kitaro has. He faces off against villains like the yokai Hoko-who has an evil scheme to corner the market on pickled daikon radish-and the Amifuri Tengu, who always brings the rain. Things get hairy in 'The Great Hair Battle,' when Medama Oyaji's friend Kemedama begs for Kitaro's help against an attack of giant wigs. The stories in this volume are collected from the late-1960s golden age of Gegege no Kitaro, and appear here in English for the first time in a kid-friendly edition, uncut and unedited, with translations by the Mizuki scholar Zack Davisson. (W/A/CA) Shigeru Mizuki
