I remember back when we had the old forums i said i was going to try my hand at reviewing some manga, but things soon caught up with me and, well i gave up tbh. Now ive got more free time i thought id try my hand at it again.

So i'll use this thread list some titles im thinking of reviewing, and if anyones already doing them then just tell me Smile

So up first on my plate is DC's pre-CMX branch into manga, with the Japanese set Batman title -
Batman Child of Dreams by Kia Asamiya (purely because it gives me an excuse to reread it Very Happy)


Damo - is this fine with you?

In terms of what we're reviewing it's pretty much UK titles only (Titan did bring that Batman title out over here, but it's not being done so that one's free as well).

I can't comment on what anybody else is doing, but any title that's only out in America should be clear.

*waits for Damo's response*

Manga is a lot more international than anime, we still have the UK/US/JP flag ident in the manga review "Ai's checklist" to identify imports, Kevin also tends to review imports already too, so US manga isn't a problem,

It's DVD wise where were UK only.

You could say because you could walk in to any local comic shop and buy a US-imported manga, where as you can't do that with DVDs. I think the Dragonhead reviews are imports. out of the recently added reviews.
