Even a Monkey Can Draw Manga TPB (2002) comic books 1980 or later

1st printing. By Koji Aihara and Kentaro Takekum. This Viz graphic novel is the English-language translation of the notorious best-selling series that blew the lid off the comic-book industry in Japan. This volume includes material formerly serialized in the alternative manga anthology PULP, plus pages of entirely new goodies! Now you too can learn the secrets! This mock-instructional tome is actually a hilarious parody in graphic-novel form of those books that seek to advise one on "how to draw manga." Now even a completely untalented, artistically uninclined novice such as yourself can learn what it takes to properly use a pen, create characters, license ancillary rights for anime and toy manufacturing, and become rich, famous, and sexually potent beyond one's wildest dreams! Softcover, 152 pages, B&W. Cover price $15.95.
