[@TheGreatDevlin]

I always say the superior trio combo must have Ben and Tiffany bc of their sibling dynamic. Ben terrorizing Tiffany and Sal joining in is hilarious. This is the trio that have us the Jizzler, the spookiest Batman villain. 🎃

I really need a manga pop? i’ll like to see Tiffany do a few horror mangas on the couch

Comicpop over here trying to make the whole season for me, let alone my day

[@turtle24uc]

I understand you sal, I bought uzamaki read the first chapter closed it and hid it in my closet then gave it to a friend to keep. It just creeped me out. Turned my stomach, both the visuals and the story. It just gets to me

[@casteanpreswyn7528]

And now you can wear Uzamaki. Ito had a collab with a fashion company specifically for Uzamaki. Lol

[@The_GeekLeak]

i got the purple uzumaki shirt at the ito both this year at nycc and love it

[@ethanainsworth]

Why is the Max flipping me off in the background? XD

[@TheGreatDevlin]

Eventually I should just join the Patreon. But this is a new feature.

[@comicpopreturns]

Thank you so much!

[@bergerchicken]

Yes! I love comic-induced trauma by virtue of Ito!

[@Mattkeyz1]

Fragments of Horror has got to be my fav collection of Ito's work. Just some of the bleakest stories he's ever done.

[@WakizashisTeahouse]

Love Junji Ito's SHIVER. You guys get a like just for that opening elbow scene. Tiffany's reaction is hilarious.

[@elliottroses]

God, I was hoping you’d do Junji Ito this October! I love these episodes and these are some of my favorite Ito stories

[@spideyfan6296]

I think my favorite story is the long sleep, because there's so much you can do with that and say more stuff about it. Because for me I've had literal dreams about being in Hell, like the place bad people go when they die and to imagine that that can last over years scares me. But I've also had dreams where I was in Heaven and I don't mind that lasting a thousand years. So I would love a sequel to it and I thoroughly enjoyed this story.

[@hidrogu10000]

Always love the juji Ito Episodes

[@FrozenLavaDragonProd]

Yes! Best part of October is these horror themed episodes! Love seeing you cover Junji Ito!

[@xuxuang8574]

Junji Ito is my favourite comic book writer and the Long Dream is my favourite story...

[@michaelfenech8041]

This is the best thing i could ask for before halloween

[@capsjukebox]

My fave short Ito story is the Enigma of the Amigara Fault Mystery and mass madness

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

First Sarah Jessica Parker goes crazy in "Fashion Model", and now Angelina Jolie starts popping off in "Black Bird". The first two stories in this are in the Junji Ito Collection anime, and it's almost night and day. But even as a slideshow with sound, they're still kinda chilling. Looking forward to those "Uzumaki" and "Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre" anime.

[@TheRealZubes]

Indeed! I also mentioned to them, off camera, that they made a live action version of the long dream.

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

I remember that one. It was an...interesting interpretation of the original story. Fingers-crossed for those future adaptations.

[@Ducaso]

Ito’s stories always give me existential dread. I both love his style of terror and horror while simultaneously hate it because it’s so effective. Anyway it makes a perfect pick for the holiday.

[@architeuthis3476]

As a big Junji Ito fan, I really appreciate these. Keep up the torture, Tiffany!

[@pious83]

If they haven't covered it yet. Really looking forward to seeing them read The Hanging Balloons.

@@architeuthis3476 Good. I'll look for it in the older videos. Thanks

[@Martin_TheCollector]

I wish I had more of Ito's books. His work is awesome and very rarely freaks me out. Not sure how that's possible haha. My love for horror films and games must be a big factor.

[@ethanrichmond3992]

Loved the last Junji Ito special, so excited to watch this one!

[@nickygoods131]

I just ordered the hardcover of Shiver, and a couple junji ito Funko Pops *bonus*! Thank you Tiffany, It was looking like October was gonna end with a whimper for new horror. But, this has me excited for Halloween 🎃!

[@DMorfin11]

Every year, I'm glad I can experience these book through y'all so I don't have to have nightmares after reading them alone

[@soheilkhavari4474]

oh sweet I really enjoyed that other time when you guys basically introduced me to Ito with the body shaped holes on the mountain story!

[@TheRealZubes]

The Enigma of Amigara Fault!

[@HoistTheBlackFlag]

Engagement and interaction with creator to please the mathemagics that choses what gets seen or not. Also I think I might have to pick up an Junji Ito book

[@SkylightCiel]

Halloween over at Comic Pop is always such a treat. Watching ya'll talk Junji Ito is always so fun.

[@camsenses5140]

Okay, this episode creeped me out to the core. Im going to finally take the plunge and get my hands on as many Ito books as I can. TIFF, MY WALLET CURSES YOU!

[@ThePongzilla]

As soon as Tiffany said, “Black Bird” I knew what story she was talking about. It is by far my favorite of Ito’s because it is so creepy and gross.

[@coreymcgivney5897]

Wooo, love when once in a Blood moon when Comic Pop covers manga, and of course in the scariest season of the year, so the fear of the ever so scary Copyright

[@comicsmisexplained]

A haunting scat like the Bud Ice Penguin “doo be do be dooo”

[@ThePandaSupreme]

For sure do more ito on here (:

[@Insane-Howl-Cowl]

Junji Ito with Comic Pop just before Halloween?! Yes please, but also No... oh no... oh ...

[@DovahkingAudio]

Gotta say as someone who recently finished Shiver the story The Long Dream is probably my favorite.

[@TommyBaysMusic]

All I can say is that these are Life-like and real mind thrilling Ghoulishly fun stories. I am like Sal On not being a normal reader of this Regularly, but I can certainly enjoy Ito's work this time of year. I am Thinking my favorite was second Hand record. So chilling and Marvelously set up.

[@aydenmoesser8556]

Y'know a good episode would be one where they discuss 3 times Joker fought Superman, as he has done it more than you think.

[@crunson2000]

I didnt really have a favorite but I really enjoy it when you expose me to these new kinds of comics, so keep it up! :D

[@samslash9]

Just as the people in the story the used record makes me really interested.

[@kemmdog4444]

It’s been a while but RIP Scatman John.

[@cam8584]

IM THE SCAT MAN OOOOOOOOOO BIBADABDO

[@casteanpreswyn7528]

Fun fact about Junji Ito, man makes the scariest manga but is super wholesome. Also, he teamed up with both mtg(for a secret lair) and a fashion company for collabs.

[@aidanmartin546]

My wife and I both think that Tiff's new hair is hot af

[@Terriblyawfulshows]

Tiffany looks like an 80s popstar with that eye makeup, it’s great

[@TommyBaysMusic]

Why do i love the creepy secondhand record story so very much.... chilling, but a great short story.

[@pious83]

Love Ito's work! Although I found Fragments of Horror one of the weaker collections. I'm sure Sal & Ben will love future stories like Remina or the grim, longer stories like No Longer Human.

[@MickeyDee602]

Totally understand why it's a huge nope for people haha, but I love Blackbird, especially how it manages to be so gross while showing so little.

[@TheRealZubes]

Right? Its one of those: the more you think about it, the less you want to think about it.

[@pascaldongen2981]

Always a pleasure to see a new GBU, especially when its Ito themed :3

[@JamesGibbler]

Always great hair

[@MakiPcr]

I can't pick a favorite, Ito is like a train crash to me: Horrifying but I cannot look away

[@AugustNerdinIron]

Another great episode!

[@thomasgreissfan17]

Appreaciate the new Ito! fun stuff guys

[@thelonewolfronstringer6266]

I watched the used record to hear the song and it was haunting and very fitting for a junji ito story. As far as dreams go I have the best ones when the stories I listen to at night get incorporated into them

[@purpleguy319]

The Groaning Drain really sets off my claustrophobia. My favourite however is The Bully.

[@ianbruno237]

“100% the bird one”…I think sal is against birds

[@Woopywomp]

I rarely comment on these things -But tiff did amazing on her make up and hair. I'm guessing a lot of people mind vomitted that into the comments. Eitherway excited to hear about these fucked up horror mangas.

[@NachiketNaik]

I love this and videos like this but I fear this might've gotten suppressed, I did not get a notification for this

[@aka.radstatic]

I don’t usually Ito, but when I do it’s Junji. I just can’t stop shivering because of the holes 🕳️

[@jonfrombuckland_3784]

OH! How exciting and scary!

[@galvatron3323]

These are always great.

[@errantrazor]

I’m not really that guy, but Tiffany, I love your hairdo

[@TheRealZubes]

Thank you!

[@Panda_Roll]

The black bird one is hunting. I thought he was talking about self sabotage with that. That when the guy hit a rough patch he was happy to get the food but never questioned where it was coming from or what the price was. He was basically taking from his own future self, sacrificing tomorrow so he could barely make it today.

[@RJ_Grendelsire]

YO! Ito Halloween again!

[@raistlinmajere5550]

Tiffany really should just tie the boys up and make them watch the anime also dat Gina Davis hair tho

[@GamesWithBrainz]

i was just wishing you guys would do something with manga

[@jasondennison8911]

Tomie was the first character I latched onto from Ito and it terrified me originally.

[@jerfuhrer2581]

Well, that was absolutely disturbing! That Blackbird story was WHACKED!!

[@comicdog5097]

I somehow missed this when it was released..... Gonna watch it three times now for the algorithm

[@SecretScubaSteve]

I love this Junji Ito!

[@mttylerdurden9]

So Tiffany, any thoughts on that Uzamaki anime from TOONAMI that keeps getting delayed?

[@TheRealZubes]

I'm starting to feel like it's cursed! But honestly, I really hope they release it so we can all watch it!

[@Sicod79]

Who needs horror films when you have comic pop?

[@michaelscottfuku]

That dream story reminds me of the story that “Ari Shafir” has, that he told on the Joe Rogan podcast. He smoked some salvia and basically had a dream/trip that lasted like 8-10 months and he said he had a seperate life, kids, wife, the whole nine yards. Thats whats so scary about that story to me. There are actual documented cases where people have experienced something somewhat similar to that type story. I’ve had dreams on many occasions that seem to last muuuuuch longer than i was asleep lol. Shit is weird lol.

[@michaelbarletta1024]
