Friday Procrastination Aides, 1/15/10

15 January 2010 2 Comments

First things first: congratulations to Evan Minto, who won a copy of Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms in this week’s giveaway! A big thank-you to everyone who entered the drawing — y’all have persuaded me I need to track down copies of Sanctuary STAT. Look for the next giveaway announcement on Monday.

Elsewhere around the web, Snow Wildsmith tackles Deka Kyoshi at Good Comics for Kids, and I post a review of Pigling, a Korean Cinderella story… David Welsh and Melinda Beasi share links to great comics criticism from 2009… Ken Haley, a.k.a. LostPhrack, reviews Novala Takemoto’s deliciously bitchy novellas Missin’ and Missin’ 2… Manga Village is looking for reviewers and columnists. More information here… Christopher Butcher shares photos from a trip to a Kyoto branch of Book-Off as well as some unique Kazuo Umezu swag… and Danielle Leigh posts a helpful glossary of manga terms. One final note: Deb Aoki’s best-of-2009 manga polls close tonight. If you haven’t voted yet, go and exercise your right to do so!
