   	If you want Japanese manga or even Korean manhwa stay away from   
   the The Mammoth Book of Best New Manga Volume 2 edited by Ilya,   
      
   	This is 544 pages of less than the best imitations of Japanese   
   manga.  Some are pretty good but these are not manga.   
   Some are amusing  or occasionally amusing comic art but not manga.   
      
   	For about $16 US it makes me glad I borrowed it from the SFPL Main,   
   where I visited this AM and got first two volumes of Crayon Shin Chan and   
   and the 2nd volume of Click a Manhwa.   Have been too busy to get into   
   either story  yet.
