Dark Horse used to release them, and released a thick Case Files collection of stories years ago, but it is out of print now. Currently, Epicenter comics is releasing translations once in a while. Only issue that I noticed is that for copyright reasons, Groucho is called Felix in the English editions and he is lacking the mustache.

I think it was terribly received even in japan. I made the mistake of watching the Smashed episode where the animators clearly didn't understand what was happening or the allegory because they animated the characters getting smashed as exploding. Well I say "animated" It was never more than 2 frames and mostly done off screen. They also somehow took ALL the tension out of the ending.
Amigara fault is overdone though. Uzumaki is superior.

Its just that I wanted to see it animated. Or things like "Falling". At least we got "Endless Dream" but it looked bland. I think the only okay one was the voyeur creatures one.
Instead of that stupid self insert fanfic bully, Tomie should have been the ongoing story arc. But overall, Ito material is cursed to be terrible as 2D animation. Gyo was trash as a movie as well. Uzumaki was actually an okay movie, don't know about Tomie.
And now I'm also /tv/, I bet Anon is eating his own shit in angry fat white male rage.

It is pretty hard to overstate how much influence lovecraft actually had since he was decent friends with many authors. Conan and the setting actually take a lot of inspiration from lovecraft since he was friends with the original creator.

He was mostly published posthumously, I think the only thing he had published in his lifetime was "Entombed With The Pharaohs", the story he ghost-wrote for Houdini.
I think August Derlith did most of the cashing in, as well as getting to make his fanfic canon. YES I WENT THERE.

Flinch was a seriously underrated anthology series.
There was one story where, I can't quite remember the details but I think a guy's dad was mugged or attacked or something and left for dead. So the son goes to pick up his dad and while they're driving home the dad goes, "that's the guy, there he is over there, run the bastard over." So the son does without hesitation. Then, about 10 minutes later, his dad sees another guy and says, "That's the guy, run the bastard over."

I did. It was one of the first Shadow comics I read actually.
It was mostly dull, boring and a waste of time.
Maybe there is an interesting idea for a crossover between Lovecraft's mythos and style with The Shadow's own but this comic is just a generic radio episode with a Innsmouth coat of paint.

I recommend Doppleganger. A fairly straightforward comic about an average guy who finds a supernatural being who assumed his identity and stole his life. It is a short and straightforward story, but it's very tight and well done. It's nice to see a horror comic that solely relies on the psychological element and impossibility of facing a vastly more powerful entity rather than relaying on gore and 'everyone's gonna die'.

Every horror story Graham Ingels did for EC Comics horror lines in the 1950s is worth checking out – terrific artwork, and some genuinely eerie and disturbing stories. Look up the collections published by Fantagraphics: Ingels’ original black-&-white artwork on full display without the sub-par colouring of the EC Comics, which were also printed on lower quality paper.

Sanctum is a good horror book. It starts slow, but it is very good at building tension and being a bit Lovercrftian without resorting to cults, fish-men, and tentacles. Story itself is about a submarine crew on an exploratory mission, who stumble upon ancient sunken ruins. They begin to explore and then weird things start happening.

The whole series is two parts awesome, one part rampant faggotry. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with the old wizard these days. It seems like he can't make anything that doesn't, in some horrible way, promote the unholy sport of bum-darts.
One of the more insane parts is where the expy of Ephraim Waite from Lovecraft’s “The Thing on the Doorstep” is inhabiting a 13-year-old girl named Elspeth. "Elspeth" swaps bodies with the protagonist, Mr. Black, then proceeds to rape him with his own body, switching back after and smoking a cig while Black goes completely nucking futs. I'd post it, but it's technically CP. I'm still not sure how Moore got away with it.

Moore is an unironic anti establishment communist. He's as bad as the people fucking up Watchmen on HBO. Just happens to be able to write mostly interesting stories… with comic book characters. Not with Lovecraft.
