These are all very badly presented. I was hoping for some gems, but all I got were clods of dirt.

dude...shintaro kago

Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2008

The fact that it has the world's only english-language printing of a SHINTARO mother#*&%ing KAGO story makes this book an automatic must buy.

Oh, and don't buy it for the ridiculous used prices here. If you do a good amount of googling, you can still find it for sale at other places. I got my copy for around 20 bucks at some random UK book store. You can still find it for a good price, you just need to scour the internets.

(I also thought the Junko Mizuno story was quite good and it made me buy more of her books. We need more weird, avant-gardeish manga like this in the US. As opposed to all the idiotic shounen draaaaagfests and mansexyaoifangirl stuff)

An interesting collection of manga for a mature audience.

Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2015

An interesting collection of manga for a mature audience. Many of these creators appear here for the first or only time in English. There are several very graphic stories in this collection so it's not for the easily offended.

Amazing Comics Japan ! ! ! No giant robots

Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2001

This is yet another wonderful collection of strange Japanese Comics. In the same vein as anthologies SAKE JOCK and COMICS UNDERGROUND JAPAN, SECRET COMICS JAPAN is a hearty helping of strange, weird, beautiful and questionable comics.
If you're tired of the pretentious AMerican underground comis that Fantagraphics is publishing, then check out this collection of Japanese gems and take in a refreshing breath of creative air. - JOHN
