Ok... Manga.. the only comparison to comic books is that it is, pretty much, told frame by frame.. this is not hard and fast.. there ARE many that have blocks of text. also.. Manga tells an ongoing story... yes, X-men and the Stan Lee comics did.... to some extent.. BUT.. manga stories would best be described as a book that got hyper-illustrated. The main difference between Manga and comics, as I see it, is that... Manga, unlike comics, tells a whole story... plot, subplot and threads running through it and developing. It is not, and never has been, Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny doing slapstick... although, you DO get slapstick, sometimes.

  Aside... if you have watched Amine, you have seen an animated Manga.. in Japan... if you do not have a PROVEN following, you have no chance of having your story animated. Lou.
