D3 doesn’t even read the column let alone write it.

Arrrrgh! And I comment on the dang column every time, so you’d think I’d remember that by now.

I blame the fact that I had just woken up for my serious misstep, Dan, sorry!

I really dig the insanity of Mr. Vampire, when I was first exposed to jiang shi. Take that kind of monster and put it into a story called ‘Zombie Fairy’? Awesome.

Great column again, Dave!

Actually, Dan Grendell is our resident manga-guy, and he’s been writing Manga Zubon since the feature’s inception. Believe it or not, he’s one of the few guys on our review team that doesn’t answer to the name Dave

Great column again, Dave! Lovin’ the fact that I get opinions on something like Zombie Fairy that I probably would have just skipped right over in the wild but am now terribly interested in picking up after that review.

I’m really glad I got paid today because I can see a bunch of these are gonna fall into my ‘to try’ list when I swing by the manga store on the way home…

I actually stumbled across Gon on a nearly accidental whim, and it’s now one of my most anticipated buys every single time it comes out. Very few books ever cause me laugh audibly, but so far not a single volume of Gon has failed me.

My wife doesn’t really do comics, but she loves Gon. I also fully intend to put my volumes in my son’s hands… as soon as he stops putting everything in his hands into his mouth.

I've been reading the Shojo Beat serialization of Sand Chronicles and must agree that that it's quite good. It filled the whole of utmost quality created when they stopped printing Nana in the mag and quickly became my most-anticipated feature each month.
