Is Manga Really Dying?
So here’s an article about how the manga industry is dying.

Frankly, I think she’s being a tad bit alarmist, and no, the anime industry before 1997 wasn’t so god awful, it was just super sparse and incredibly expensive. 15-18 dollar manga was common.
I buy only three manga series. D Gray Man, Sgt Frog...
Comics I Read - Aug 19th
I’m behind on my books as usual, so here they are in no particular order. Most likely spoilers, but it’s old news in comic book years. X-Men Forever 2 - issue 5 The battle with the Morlocks continues and in a move that only Claremont dare try, the X-Men (and Daisy Dugan) try to talk it out. Mystique is still around and she’s still sketchy as hell. Love her. It’s wordy, often confusing and makes...

Comics I read this week (Aug 1)
I’m usually a week or more late with my books, so they may not be “up to date” as other’s blogs. Whatever. Eternally late, thats’ me. Anyway, here’s what I thought about what was in my pull list this week.
X-Men Legacy 238 : Centers around Rogue, Magneto and Indra. The cover is superwonderful and I’d love to have that as a poster/print. New arc, new...

Hi there, welcome back.
As you can see, I’ve burned down all most of the previous posts with the intention to make new & better posts.
…
Well, new at least. I plan to post my new adventures and thoughts about comics, Wii Fit, (well fitness as an easily distracted nerd sees it) and whatever anime/manga I’m currently paroozing.
Also, Octopus Girl.
