Next Review: Carpe Diem

Monday, September 10th, 2007

For those who are interested, the creator of the previously reviewed HERO has recently won second place in an International Manga Competition for the Japanese manga magazine “Morning.” There are two things to mention here, one being the similarities between the the overall review of the comic, which you will find at the bottom of [...]
