In a very interesting development, domestic comic writer Warren Ellis, Marvel X-Book’s “plotmaster,” and creator of excellent comic works Transmetropolitan, The Authority, and Plaentary, will be writing a column for the manga anthology Pulp, starting in volume 5 #1. In his new monthly column, the critically acclaimed English-language comics writer discusses how American and Japanese culture interact through comics. “Western comics were not the same after Akira,” Ellis says. “It was most Western people’s first exposure to post-Tezuka, massively decompressed storytelling. And it was strange to see a Japanese comic, coming as it did from a place that still labored under lots of stereotyping and misconception from abroad, Showing ‘us’ how to make a comic so utterly contemporaneous.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
