Monster Boom is a visual exploration of the creatures, villains, and beautifully bizarre bad guys of tokusatsu, the Japanese tradition of live-action special-effects cinema and television made famous by giant monsters, superheroes, robots, and creatures of all kinds.
Curated by Ben Marcus, with additional monsters from Brian Uhl, this 60-page zine dives headfirst into the strange and ubsurd world of Japanese monster culture.
Printed in four-color Risograph, laminated, and saddle stitched in Chicago, Monster Boom is part monster encyclopedia, part art zine, and part love letter to the weirdest monsters around.
