![Priapus by Mentaiko Itto]()
ADULT CONTENT 18+
MENTAIKO is one of German publisher Bruno Gmünder's newest artists on their roster of gay manga all-stars, and the treatment is more than well-deserved. Mentaiko's manga are vividly imaginative, funny, and titillating. His aesthetic is more muscle-twink than
gachimuchi, bordering the
bishonen of BL/yaoi. His style is effortlessly sharp and his work is always impactful and not for lack of any hard-core action.
On the title story of
Priapus:
Tired of humanity's wicked ways, Zeus, the King of the Gods, has decided that our time is up! He sends Priapus, the God of virility and good harvest, down to Earth to do us in. His mission: to turn every man on Earth gay, thereby removing our means of reproduction, one man at a time.
It'll probably work... right?
This edition collects the first three conquests of Priapus as well as the bonus stories "Gachinko Battle," "1/4" and "1000 Meters Deep," with a new afterword by the author.

About the Author: Aside from drawing in the margins of his notebooks, Mentaiko Itto never went to school for art, and never had an art-related job. After he graduated in 2005, while working at a part-time job, he realized he wanted to start illustrating and authoring manga online.
