Oh my, this is the sort of club I've always wanted to join.
You guys have just made my day *.*

I'm surprised that I was made an admin, though I don't really mind. I added some manga to the relations.

Also, to people in this club I recommend the book Manga: Masters of the Art, it includes interviews with Suehiro Maruo, Usamaru Furuya, Jiro Taniguchi and other artists.

Cool club, I'm glad I found it!

@Pierre: Oh no, it's understandable that you're busy. I've been busy too, that's why I've been late with updates for my club as well.

Just update whenever then. I always look forward to whatever is featured in this club anyway :D

Nice, you can read it. I thought that you simply copy and pasted the quote from Socrates. I just figured out how to type in greek, so I wanted to make a post somewhere in it and didn't know what to say. By the way, (σςιτψηινγ) is suppose to be "switching" , (ψηαραψτερσ) is suppose to be "characters", U (not upsilon) does not translated over into a theta as it does on my computer. There are other mistakes on the keyboard. I also need to figure how to put the accents in. How much Greek have you taken and was it ancient or modern?

Sorry for not getting back to you, I have multiple papers due this week and long (but awesome) Herodotus readings. I will try in a few days after my papers are turned in.

God damn keyboard is (σςιτψηινγ) (θπ) the (ψηαραψτερσ). Ypsilon(?) is not Theta, Why am I here typing this I guess I shall never know nor shall anyone be able to read this (sic!). Dam(n) this computer.

I read the scan and it was outstanding. Though I imagine it is much more powerful in print.

Sorry for not updating the featured weekly, I've been very busy, my efficiency has plummeted, and I've been getting really into music. Yet I can't stay off this site or the rest of the internet.
