gee lemme see - well I guess that at this point someone could do "meanwhile
back at the ranch" an expose all fanfic about what the main characters
brother and cat were up to during the second half of issue 1 --- could even
maka lemon of it if you try 
hard enough 0_0

If the author's been reading Shonen Sunday, they'll have far more range than
that. When Viz said they were releasing it concurrent to the Japanese issues,
they (presumably) meant the tankoubans, in actual fact Inuyasha has been
in SS since December of last year. So by now there's enough of a storyline
for us to rip off, if we felt like it. It's an ok series, as things go, but
I can't get into it enough to want to write fanfiction for it, not even when
(people having only seen the Viz version start pounding Mark over the head
before he can blurt out spoilers)...

Ow. Give it another few months and the Inuyasha cameos will start in 
people's fics. A few months from there, the fanfics will probably begin 
to spawn. Hmmm... maybe I'll cameo the wire woman, whose name completely
escapes me at the moment. I liked her. (she'll be round by about issue 4
or so of the Viz stuff, I can't be bothered working it out exactly. Enough
spoilage.) :P
