A high school student finds a green cat with tentacles on the street and brings it home. The cat, named Cthulhu, behaves like a regular feline but with some strange differences. When the boy shares photos of Cthulhu on social media, he receives bizarre comments from followers. Two alien-like visitors claim to be from a cat magazine and start worshipping Cthulhu. More strange cat-like creatures start appearing at the boy’s house, including a priest with his cat Nyarlathotep, turning the house into a gathering place for a Cthulhu cult.
Cthulhu Cat is a one-shot, full-color gag manga collection that pays tribute to Lovecraft’s stories and his love for cats. Mangaka Pandania, known for cat-themed titles, brings Lovecraft’s horrors to life in feline form. The art style and dark color palette used in the manga set it apart from other cat-themed parodies by Pandania. The translation by Zack Davisson and lettering by Steve Dutro enhance the reading experience.
Overall, Cthulhu Cat is a quirky and unique manga collection that cat-loving Lovecraft fans will enjoy. The quality paper and artwork make it a great gift for fans of both horror and cats. “Meo Iä Iä!”
