    NOTE: "COMICS! They're so much more than illustrated stories. They're a key to understanding a nation's people and it's culture. Slashing samurai, gorgeous geisha, nefarious ninja, rambunctious robots, and much more... Congratulations to Frederik L. Schodt for introducing us to the wonderful world of Japanese comics in this beautiful book. Excelsior!" Stan Lee
