Nice collection

I can't believe I let this sit untouched on my shelf for 5 months! It is a wonderful collection of unknown manga talent from Britain and a few other places and is definitely worth a read for the teenage or adult manga/comics fan.

As with many collections, some of the stories weren't quite to my taste, but I can still apprieciate them. The book features a wide variety of styles and genres and it is highly likely you'll find something you like in here. Among my favourites were the mini Carlos and Sakura strips by Joanna Zhou, Jinn Narration by Asia Alfasi, and Fat Panda by Craig Conlan. Some of the artwork was a lot more comic-orientated than manga, so readers shouldn't expect direct manga-copies but this is explained in the introduction.

The introduction itself was good, but I felt it was also a little lacking. I was surprised that it didn't mention anything about Korean manwha along with American comics and Japanese manga. Oh well.
