In the manga subgenre known as Ero-guro (Erotic-grotesque), Suehiro Maruo is renowned for his beautifully-composed, exquisitely-crafted scenes influenced by Japanese ''Ukiyo-e'' prints on one hand, and the canon of Western fine art on the other.
Maruo started his career by providing short strips for porn magazines, because, as he says, they would publish anything [[PornWithoutPlot as long as there is nudity and sex]]. Indeed, many of his early strips are [[MindScrew incomprehensible]]. The America-published anthology ''Ultra-Gash Inferno'' contains the more "readable" stories of early Maruo, while the rest are sometimes available as {{Scanlation}}.
Maruo's growing fame then allowed him to publish longer stories, of which ''MrArashisAmazingFreakShow'' has garnered him an international cult following.
Maruo's important works include:
* ''MrArashisAmazingFreakShow'' (1984)
* ''New Atrocities In Blood'' (1988) -- a modern reworking of ''Muzan-e'' (atrocity prints) genre of ''Ukiyo-e''.
* ''Inugami Expert'' (1994)
* ''TheLaughingVampire'' (2000)
* ''The Strange Tale of Panorama Island'' (2008) -- adaption of a novel by Edogawa Rampo.
* ''Imomushi'' (''The Caterpillar'') (2009) -- another Rampo adaptation.
