This is a 1970 Shonen Magazine (少年マガジン) cover designed by Tadanori Yokoo, which This is a striking, minimalist design with a horror theme. The background is a mix of dark green and black, creating an eerie and disturbing mood, and in the upper right corner, a pale face of a man with red lips that seem to represent blood is staring out. In the lower left, a woman screams and expresses fear. The large empty space makes the characters seem isolated. The design feels influenced by Western horror and is a unique blend of cultures.
