Yosuke Shinkai is haunted by a past he cannot recall...and a body that is rapidly decomposing. He is a living corpse, unclear who he is or why he has been brought back to life only to suffer again a slow gruesome death. A grotesque and disturbing account of life after horrific death, told by Japan's undisputed master of horror manga, and appearing here for the first time in English translation.

Kaiki! Shiniku no Otoko was published in English as Living Corpse by DH Publishing on June 1, 2004, as the fifth volume in the Hino Horror collection.
