Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.
Here's an article in the Asahi Shimbun about the success history books for manga are finding with all ages, and similarly, in sales receipts.

I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.

Yeah, it's probably temporary, but Bendis just killed Steve Rogers.
My bad. Disregard that. It was a stupid prophecy.
You know, I've been reading some of your past columns and I have only one thing to say: have you no soul?! How the hell can you hate Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse?! You who thinks the animation of Warner Bros and Disney, especially in their earlier years, is lower than trash doesn't deserve to be a fan of animation. Still, if your interest in anime/manga is genuine and something made up, here are a few titles for you to try: Devilman, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and Fist of the North Star.
As a parting sentence, here's one last opinion from me: Wolfman's New Teen Titans are a bunch of whining losers and has a lousy success rate of capturing crooks and stopping evil plans.
