   XPost: rec.arts.anime.misc   
   From: thisis@fake.ihope   
      
   I'm cross-posting this, since rec.arts.manga is the most obvious   
   choice, but anime.misc will probably get more replies...   
      
   At a comic convention the other day, I picked up the first Dark Horse   
   volume of Yuzo Takada's 3x3 Eyes.  The titled led me to believe there   
   would be at least 6 eyes, and possibly as many as 9, but it's actually   
   just about characters who have 3 eyes.  There is more than 1, so there   
   are 3 characters with 3 eyes, but there are also more than 3   
   characters with 3 eyes...   
      
   I thought I might like this, but I haven't decided yet.  I liked All   
   Purpose Cultural Catgirl Nuku Nuku, and this isn't bad, but it's   
   strange, and I'm not sure yet whether I feel like reading more or   
   not...   
      
   It's oriented left-to-right; has this been flipped or have the panels   
   been individually cut and pasted?   
      
   And why is it called 3x3 Eyes, instead of just 3 Eyes, or 3x3x3 Eyes,   
   or 3x3x3x3 Eyes?   
      
   (It has this quote on the back cover:   
   "...some koo-koo adventures, Jack!"   
   -Rob Zombie)
