Manga vs. Comics

[Alzrius]

Of course, there are exceptions: My favourite writer/artist is Fred Perry, an American who does Gold Digger, an action/adventure comic.

Amen to that! I've been reading Gold Digger since it was just in black and white, and it's been incredible to watch as Fred's work gets better and better over time. My only real criticism of his work is that he stops short of letting the bad guys ever achieve a true victory (something lasting and significant)...this usually doesn't happen in comics, I know, but he does everything else so well, and so realistically (within the boundaries of the comic), that it just seems so jarring that they never win.
