- Last time I come across an installment of The Spirit of Wonder was in the May
- 1991 issue of Afternoon (or else I wouldn't be writing this, would I.. :)
- Then it sort of just disappeared. It may still be running in other mags, but
- since I only have so much leg stamina I didn't bother to dig for it in my
- local Kinos. The author is Tsuruta Kenji, and the publisher is of course
- Kodansha. In my '92 Comic Catalog (bible) it has vol.1 compilation listed
- for Y700. Me think there's all the info you need to order it from your
- nearest Kino.
-
- There must be some interesting stories behind this author's recent
- disappearance. Do fill us in if anyone out there is better informed.
- Thanks in advance.
