Manga: Sixty Years gets Flipped
Just wanted to mention David's latest Flipped column which reviews Manga: Sixty Years of Japanese Comics by Paul Gravett. I picked this up a couple of months ago and really enjoyed what I read of it.

I love the two Schodt books, but it is great that new updated books on manga are still being written. The industry is just so massive and has such history that I think things like this are really important. Personally, I love pop-culture history in general...
