I like these guys. A human head on any reptile is pretty much a winner in my book.

Umibozu. Lots of yokai in those old prints. If you find books in the store about yokai, chances are some of the pics used are from these old prints. They're really great.

Hey Punkin if you like Utagawa, you may like Yoshitoshi too. Really bizarre, and gorey too.
