Comic books in 'Manga'

1st printing. Story and art by Makoto Kobayashi. Described as "Japan's version of Garfield, Heathcliff, and Krazy Kat all rolled into one," Makoto Kobayashi's What's Michael? is one of graphic fiction's true comedic originals. It combines day-to-day cat scenarios every cat lover (and hater!) will recognize, with off-the-wall flights of fantasy that will have readers scratching their heads while holding their sides from laughter. If you think comics are only about superheroes, it's time to switch gears and have a few -- or more than a few! -- laughs with What's Michael?! Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 88 pages, B&W.

1st printing. Written by Hideyuki Kikuchi. Art by Yoshitaka Amano. Features one color tip-in and fifteen black-and-white line illustrations by Yoshitaka Amano. The Apocalypse didn't end with a BANG, but with a whimper. Silently, the "amnesia wind" swept away all of mankind's knowledge. Thousands of years of human civilization vanished overnight as people forgot how to use the tools of modern civilization; who they were--how to speak--everything. Technology decayed as mankind was reduced to an extremely primitive level. Two years after the devastation, a young man explores a nation reduced to barbarism: America. Miraculously re-educated after the cataclysm, a young man is accompanied by a strange woman--somehow spared the obliterating effects of the amnesia wind. Pursued by a relentless killing machine, they search for those responsible for stealing their memories. The novel that inspired the classic anime by Ninja Scroll director Yoshiaki Kawajiri.
