Read the full take

Remina is a chilling cosmic-horror tale from Junji Ito that works on a scale far larger than most of his work. An unknown planet emerges from a wormhole and is named after the daughter of its discoverer. Its fame grows, but the object begins to pick up speed, eliminating planets and stars one after another until Earth faces extinction. The story asks whether the girl herself is the cause, and the question builds real dread. Ito's uncanny linework and expressive faces make every panel feel wrong in the best way. The honest cons: the short run leaves some questions open, and the body horror can be intense for some readers. The scale can feel abstract at times. Still, it is a striking, memorable piece for fans of cosmic horror. If you enjoy horror that works on an enormous scale, this is essential.
