Sushi Is Not Food



Veteran comics commentator Pat O'Neill has leapt out of the Usenet/CompuServe mid-1990s and into the modern blog era with a long disquisition on why manga aren't comics and how the Comics Journal's current managing editor Dirk Deppey is oh-so-wrong in his recent editorial about the importance of Asian comics to the North American market. It's such a perfect distillation of a specific point of view I can't pass up inviting you to rap on the plexiglass and take a look for yourself.

I swear this page from something called Full Metal Panic! is the first thing I grabbed off my manga shelf; it was too funny not to use. Sorry, Pat.
