Junji Ito vs H.P. Lovecraft

Junji Ito's work Junji Ito H.P Lovecraft's work H.P Lovecraft

A four-panel comparison shows a grotesque dark-faced figure representing Junji Ito's work, a smiling Wojak representing Junji Ito, another grotesque figure representing H.P. Lovecraft's work, and a darker figure representing H.P. Lovecraft.
