My review of Crossroad is up at Manga Life.
In this week’s Flipped column, David Welsh goes all Valentine’s Day on us by looking at the odd couples in Nana and Kamikaze Girls.
At comics-and-more, Think About Comics gives two thumbs up to Monster and Dragon Head. At IGN, reviewer A.E. Sparrow likes Monster as well. I think I’ll be adding it to my stack.
