Garo (April 1994, Issue No. 350) is a highly regarded special issue of the influential alternative manga magazine Garo, published by Seirindo. The issue is devoted to "The World of Edogawa Rampo," exploring the celebrated author's bizarre, grotesque, and decadent imagination through comics, essays, interviews, and discussions.
Combining manga, criticism, and conversation, the issue offers a deep exploration of Rampo's aesthetic of mystery, eroticism, and the macabre. It is widely regarded as one of Garo's most memorable themed issues and has become a sought-after collector's item, often commanding premium prices in the secondhand market.
