Comments on: 20th Century Boys – Papoosed and Ready to Rock [vols 1 & 2] http://higevsotaku.com/?p=350 Avid otaku resistance in the face of indisputable fanboyism. Love for fringe anime, assorted manga and numerous other Japanese diversions.

I've been reading a lot on my iPhone, which is much more comfortable than staring at a computer screen for hours on end, but having the physical book in your hands can't be beat. Also, the finer points of the artwork are clearer in hardcopy I think; they haven't been scanned/edited into oblivion (Naruto is a good example of this). Either way, I'm looking forward to the coming volumes. Viz seems to be merciful with its release schedule for this series. @Owen S: Don't forget I read more manga than I watch anime, my friend. I read Pluto long before I started reading 20th Century Boys. @ghostlightning:

This is my favorite manga and I too have recently purchased these two volumes. I've read the whole thing including <i>21th</i> and I really love it. Now I must own every volume that comes out soonest! The intricate plotting actually increases in complexity and I think reading physical copies will make a difference in reducing the effort required to keep track of the plot -- and at the same time allow me to enjoy the drawings and the thoughts this manga provokes.
