How many of you read comics regularly. I read a lot of Donald Duck, Lucky Luke, Calvin and Hobbes and Asterix. I even have ordered a Donald Duck magazine so I get my weekly dose of it. My favorite artist (on Donald Duck) are Don Rosa, Daniel Branca (here’s a link if you don’t know him), Carl Barks and Daan Jippes. I like Brancas style the most but Don Rosa makes the best stories. Of course there are some Finnish comics on my favorite list too but you can’t know any of them, I presume.
On manga side my favorites are Blade of the Immortal and Dragonball (a lot better as a comic), but almost anything goes for me, because mangas usually have a lot better plot than European and American comics. Too bad these are pretty hard to find in shops.
If someone is wondering about mangas ad anime look here:What are anime and manga?. It gives a little description that compares manga, anime and western comics. This is almost the same link but here are other texts too: Rei’s Anime and Manga Page. Some of you might want to read the Against Anime/Manga Stereotypes -text if you have something against manga or anime.
Oh. It has not landed here yet. Well, anyway, I like reading longer stories more. Those mangas are sometimes insanely long stories. There’s already twelve books (between 200-300 pages) of Blade of immortal and it’s not even close to the end of story.
holy crap zach that’s the funniest thing i’ve ever heard. you know, somebody should make you king of the universe. or better yet, reality. so… kind of like god, but not.
I read the comics everyday in the Montreal Gazette. My fa vorite ones are Dilbert and Get Fuzzy. A couple of weeks ago Dilbert had a “mystery artist week” where Dilbert’s artist would ask other artists to draw his daily…It was pretty cool.
