- Well, I finally got issue 1 of Dojinshi. Not to put it down or
- anything, but I was expecting more/different things from it.
-
- Were the manga actually done by Japanese, or by someone at Antarctic
- and written in Japanese? The issue didn't make this very clear.
-
- Interesting, but imho not really worth the price tag (especially in
- Australia, with the air mail distribution to the comic shops).
-
- I don't want to put down western attempts at introducing this sort of
- thing, but I think it should have been done "american". Do a proper
- dojinshi, with american artists doing the "dojinshi" thing, and I think
- it'd be more "relevant" and appealing.
