There Is No Manga in Mudville

And I suppose that makes me Mighty Casey.

I couldn't scrape up enough Manga to fill up a column today -- if any manga publishers (not named Yen and Del Rey) happen to be reading this, drop me a line -- so I did something else.

I reviewed two graphic novels for younger readers at ComicMix today: Hope Larson's Chiggers and John Porcellino's Thoreau at Walden.

Next week I'm on vacation, which I hope means I'll give more energy to blogging (and writing some reviews) -- I've got some year-end stuff I'd like to get to. We'll see if that actually happens...
