About the Author
Born in 1977, Q-Hayashida graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts and debuted in 1997 with “Sofa-chan,” which was a runner-up in Monthly Afternoon’s Shiki Prize newcomers competition. Starting in August 1999, the series Maken X Another was serialized in Magazine Z. In December 2000, Dorohedoro began its run in Spirits Zokan Ikki. It would continue in the magazines Monthly Ikki, Hibana, and Monthly Shonen Sunday before coming to an end in October of 2018. The fruits of this intensely productive period of work have been realized in this art book. Q-Hayashida's latest work, Dai Dark, which began in April 2019, is serialized in Monthly Shonen Sunday.
