Hi.

I'd just like you-all to reccomend some things to me in terms of Japanese
(translated) and American comic-books.  (And, yes, I already know about
Ranma, so I'll be rather disappointed if I just get 150 messages saying
that Ranma is good..) (Note: If you there's anything really good from
other countries, I'm open to that, too..)

        Well, I've seen a lot of Manga suggested, but no American Comic-books.
	Also Posion Elves, the creator, Drew Hayes, is one of the few writers
today who will do anything for his ever evolving story...he's written
some of his issues with NOTHING but text and a few illustrations and
NOTHING but artwork...all to tell the story of a young emotionally
unstable, assasign elf.  Can get very dark but is ALWAYS a good read.
	BEWARE: the man has been "posioned" toward Manga and will not
appreciate you mentioning it if you write him.  As I've learned lately,
GREAT writers are not always GREAT people, sigh...and the guy even look
like me.

	You might also want to try the following titles:
	Bone-Warner Bro.s meets Lord of the Rings

	Ninja High School-At least the early stuff, when Ben left to do (YUCK)
Warrior Nun Areala, it kinda went to crap.

	Gold Digger-One of the best of the American Manga, weird, wild and
wonderful

	Shanda the Panda-More romance,more cajun racoons, more lesbian crickets
and more PANDAS (They're RARE you know) then any other furry title.

	So what are you waiting for, go to your local comic shop and READ MORE
