Narutaki’s picks:
- Preview Drops of God Manga
If you weren’t picking up this new title from Vertical, Inc. this preview will give you the push you need. The melodrama of pouring and tasting wine has never been more glorious.
- Sweater Girls
These charming illustrations of DC heroines from Hanie Mohd have a perfect amount of quirk making you want to know their stories. I think I like Supergirl best!
- Plastic Canvas Transformers
Remember making things using those plastic square cut canvases and yarn? This takes kitchy craft one step higher. Also they actually transform.
- The “Sponser Reel”
If you have to watch some corporate mubojumbo this is doing it with style. Much of it looks like stop-motion but it is all digital which is pretty impressive.
- “Shame Itself” Marvel Superhero Parody
Poking fun at a genre that you love takes skill and the right sense of humor. This book has a lot of comedic talent as well as comic book talent, and from the looks of things will appeal to new and old fans. It hits shelves this week.

Narutaki’s picks:
- Last Unicorn in Theaters Again
Yaaay!!! I am really enjoying this string of rereleasing animated classics on the big screen. And not only is it being digitally remastered, they couldn’t resist also releasing it in 3D. Hopefully I will be able to find a 2D screening.
- Professor Layton Getting an iOS Game
Or should I say his “intuitive son” will be staring in the first non-DS Layton puzzle game. I hope to get an iPad in the near future, so I’ll definitely want this game!
- French Animated Short “WindMills”
A mostly dialogue-free story about a father and daughter building a machine that runs on special winds. Beautiful textures and background mixed with moving, crisp character animation.
- L’Arc-en-Ciel to Play Madison Square Garden
This is big, BIG! Ticket prices have been insane lately, so I’m not sure if I’ll get a chance to go but it is a very cool.
- A Scathing Editorial About Marvel’s Behind-the-Scenes Business
This article comes at an interesting time after NYCC where many new projects are on deck and people are excited. But while ideas and talent are all there, The Beat talks about the stifling outlook Marvel’s business practices have.
- Stitch! Anime Finally Comes to the U.S.
Starting Monday the series will be on Disney XD. This seemed like a long shot and for whatever reason finding fan-subs of it has proven difficult. Still better late than never! This series doesn’t actually take place in Hawaii nor is there Lilo and her family, instead focusing on the wacky alien aspect. There are two sequels so if it does well I’m sure we can expect to see those, too. I don’t actually have cable, but hopefully this will make it to DVD.
Two great tastes that go great together:
