description: Since first published in 1983, Manga! Manga!: The World of Japanese Comics has been the book to read for all those interested in Japanese comics. It is virtually the "bible" from which all studies and appreciation of manga begins. More than that, given the influence of Japanese manga onanimation and on American-produced comics as well, Manga! Manga! provides the background against which these other arts can be understood. The book includes 96 pages from Osamu Tezuka's Phoenix , Reiji Matsumoto's Ghost Warrior , Riyoko Ikeda's The Rose of Versailles , and Keiji Nakazawa's BarefootGen .
