Junji Ito Pens New Tomie Art for Magazine Cover

Junji Ito's terrifying Tomie debuted in 1987, introducing a villainess who was seemingly as unkillable as she was beautiful. For nearly 40 years, she's been one of Ito's most iconic characters. And this month, she's a magazine cover girl! Asahi Shimbun's weekly Aera magazine , a news and photography publication, will feature new art of Tomie by Ito on the cover of its February 24th issue. The background of the new art piece consists of photos of flowers selected by photographer Mika Ninagawa.
