Me, I’m head-over-heels for Osamu Tezuka’s stuff, and a big fan of Hayao Miyazaki’s work, both for a long time now, altho of course Miyazaki only made a small amount of manga, I believe. (“Nausicaä” etc) And of course, mad respect to Katsuhiro Otomo for the legendary “Akira” series, plus his other works.
For sure, I also enjoyed “Death Note,” and a couple others, here and there. Moebius’ and Jiro Taniguchi’s Icaro was good, but stretched on forever, at least for me.
Anyway, if you’re passionate and/or highly respecful upon certain manga, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

DANG… that looks so much different from the “usual stuff” … and, that’s a heron, or egret-bird, possibly…?
I’ve never seen anything else like it, so it’s at least interesting to look at even if the story doesn’t hit the mark… Personally I’ve enjoyed it so much I’ve read through it several times over the years, and not that many comics have captured me that way.
And yes, that’s a great egret. Really beautiful birds!
