Description

The Corpse Delivery Service has been helping dead people move on to the afterlife...but what about interred internal organs? In Volume Three, Kuro is surprised to learn that the voice enlisting his help is coming not from a dead man, but a live man housing a necrotic organ, the result of a faulty transplant. The pursuit of putrid parts leads the kids of Kurosagi all the way to the war in Iraq! In Kurosagi, the writer of the notorious MPD Psycho creates strange, shocking scenarios of contemporary horror drawn by Housui Yamazaki, whose clean, stylish approach has made him one of the hottest new young artists in Japan.

A real dark and depressing outing with war refugees, organ harvesting, and suicide galore -- and with gore.

My library has a couple more volumes (but not the whole series) so I'm putting those on hold.
