 | Gon: Introducing The Dinosaur That Time Will Never Forget! (Paradox Fiction) by Masashi Tanaka
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $2.21 One of the first manga I read. Still one of the best. Currently out of print, but soon to return!
|
 | Sexy Voice and Robo (Sexy Voice and Robo) by Iou Kuroda
Buy new: $17.59 / Used from: $4.93 Very original crime/slice-of-life manga. Subverts genre conventions all over the place.
|
 | Robot Volume 1 (v. 1) by Range Murata
Buy new: $18.21 / Used from: $9.10 Lots of very beautiful art, with generally slight stories. But so very pretty!
|
 | Naoki Urasawa's Monster, Vol. 1 by Naoki Urasawa
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $3.09 This, the king of all thriller manga, starts great and keeps getting better. All Urasawa's books become compulsions.
|
 | Dragon Head Volume 1 (Dragon Head (Graphic Novels)) by Minetaro Mochizuki
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $0.63 Creepy, exciting and (believe it or not) intelligent.
|
 | Planetes, Book 1 by Makoto Yukimura
Buy used from: $1.31 Some of the smartest and most human hard SF published in years, comics/manga or not.
|
 | Paradise Kiss Vol 1 by Ai Yazawa
Buy used from: $1.00 First shoujo (girls') series I've read and really liked.
|
 | Tanpenshu Volume 1 by Hiroki Endo
Buy new: $11.01 / Used from: $4.96 Some amazing manga short stories. Even better than Endo's sci-fi series, Eden.
|
 | Museum of Terror, Volume 1 (v. 1) by Junji Ito
Buy new: $11.16 / Used from: $4.50 While I like a fair bit of horror manga, only Ito's books manage to really disturb me. And I mean seriously f- with my mind for days afterward!
|
 | The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service, Volume 1 (v. 1) by Eiji Ohtsuka
Buy new: $8.76 / Used from: $5.50 Entertaining supernatural mystery series. Tight little stories, slick art, and a refreshing lack of 'hijinks' for a change. Also, an amazing bit of cover design.
