Even the game is so so the char for it seems to be intersting. But by what I see so far as art goes.. this manga seems like it's going to be better than the game. This title looks like it's going to be good one. _________________

Kickass. I remember noticing Hai's signature on some of the sample art in Play Magazine a while back, and had a good feeling it was the one we know and love. Art's awesome, and I'm looking forward to this manga.
Now, to go out and play the game... _________________ Oh admonishing melody, arise in the name of the Necromancer. Now know true power!

Yea, but a press release on Death Jr. deserves no other date, wouldn't you agree?  |

Hai's art looks so good, and the greyscale tones are super-nice! Can't wait!  _________________ Madeleine Rosca

I agree with Twi, the art looks excellent and the character does seem to be one with a lot of interesting possibilities. _________________ It gives one a great sense of satisfaction to do it in perfect unison. - Michelle Cheung

Can't wait to see how it turns out. Looks quite interesting, and the shoujo bit thrown in there makes it all worthwhile. Too bad there isn't a MediEvil manga....[/img] |

The shoujo bit is a tough learning curve but pretty exciting, nonetheless. I just have to be more careful in handling the characters and storyline since this is more character driven with lots of mushy sequences.
Must fight temptation to turn this into a shonen book...
