At MangaNEXT, that is. Yes, I’m in beautiful Secaucus, New Jersey (or “East Rutherford,” as the cab driver insisted on calling it), enjoying a view of the Hackensack River. Not much going on except some very enthusiastic cosplayers loitering around the hotel lobby. I’m happy to report that they have wireless internet access and Starbucks here, so it’s just like civilization.
I’ll have photos and commentary later, but here are a few quick links for now:
At Love Manga, David Taylor is giving away free manwha. It’s simplicity itself: He’ll mention a title, you say why you should have it, best answer wins.
At Icarus Publishing, the most intelligent porn blog ever, Simon Jones adds his two cents on doujinshi and the PWCW top ten graphic novels list.
Manganews has a piece on the longest running comics serial ever, Senin Buroku, which at age 50 has outlived even the ancient and venerable Peanuts.
At ComiPress, news that Paris is getting its first manga cafe.
Reviews, reviews: At MangaCast, Ed takes on three one-shots, line, Yoki, Koto, Kiku, and Lie to Me. I like a man who’s man enough to read shoujo. Tangognat has quick reviews of Kurogane, Vs., and Yakitate! Japan.
