Where is- by Anna Valerious	May 12th, 2004 09:17:00 AM
The manga based on Linkin Park and the "Van Helsing" Cine-Manga? BTW, "Cross" sounds like a good read for those of you who liked "Van Helsing".

Just saw the video. I still dont know how to feel. I think Im feeling a little guilty when I bitch about having a bad day. I guess I just can't understand how somone could bind your hands, prostrate you across the floor, grab a chunk of hair and start cutting your head off of your shoulders. I really hope the biggest meanest strongest soldiers get a hold of these murderes and hand them over to the mossad for "questioning" Inbelieveable. Makes you feel pretty lucky to have anything at all after watching something like that. Have a good day all.

his own damn fault for going over there in the first place. iraqis should be the people being paid to rebuild iraq. some middle eastern people go by the eye for an eye thing, and court martial and non-rumsfeld resignation for the abuse and pictures and such doesn't cut it for them, the us shouldv'e known that and for some idiot to go try and make a buck in iraq he should think a little more about that stuff first.

Apparently. PS. All these titles are crap (except Peach Girl)
if you're interested in more Japanese books coming to America... by beamish13	May 12th, 2004 05:55:48 PM
Check out Vertical, Inc. They're publishing a ton of Japanese novels and Osamu Tezuka's entire "Buddha" manga. Here's an interview with its founder: http://www.comicbookbin.com/ch arlie07.html
I agree. What the fuck was that dude thinkin...? by Manaqua	May 12th, 2004 08:28:50 PM
I feel for him and his family, but what the fuck? Not a smart move. M

They are paying American contractors 6 figures to go over to Iraq and help rebuild. I would hardly say he "deserved it". Wouldn't wish that on anybody.
Regardless of whether or not his actions were sensible... by Jon L. Ander	May 12th, 2004 10:27:23 PM
there is absolutley no justification for that murder whatsoever. Acts like that can claim no cause, they are their own justification. And as for that Arab "eye for an eye" stuff, i'd say the horrific murder of Nick Berg far outways the prison abuse. There such a thing as a common standard of humanity and most people in Iraq abide by it too. This isn't some old Arab custom, this was a very modern, calculated act, deliberatly against an individual, because of his nationality. The suggestion that the wrongs perpetated by his government should in any way reflect on him is obscene.

random thoughts by JackDonkey	May 13th, 2004 12:01:35 AM
Shigeru: If they're paying the contractors six figures just imagine what the government is paying Haliburton and KVR. John L Ander: I agree with you, but I cannot have sympathy for someone that either a)realized what may happen in the tense times in a war torn nation/region and takes that risk cause the money is too good or b) blindly waltzes into a hostile nation/region without thinking about the culture and possible repurcussions. Plus my point about how iraqees should be rebuilding iraq and not americans is a finger of blame for contractors deaths, kidnappings, torture pointed at the Bush administration. Also I meant to call it prisoner torture as opposed to abuse, cause that's what it is is torture in the international meaning of the word.
How the fuck did a manga talkback turn into a steaming pile of p by Zefram Mann	May 13th, 2004 02:42:23 AM
KA-ME-HA-ME-HA-ME-HA, BIOTCH!!!
If that happened to Nick Berg... by Happy Harry	May 13th, 2004 04:06:02 AM
Is it possible we can send Stephen Sommers over there to Iraq, as well. Perhaps he go over there with his unique cinematic vision and obvious love and excitement for movies and attempt to rebuild their struggling economic and corruprt social value system by inspiring them with the hope that perhaps the Western culture has it right all along and peace and democracy are the way to create a viable and self-sufficient governmental and economic climate. Of course, then they'll see Van Helsing, and chop his fucking head off too! Man, that movie was a pile of shit!
The Queen of Hearts by ThirteenthMonkey	May 13th, 2004 09:19:23 AM
From the mouth of the Queen of Hearts to the hearts and minds of every American soldier and gold-digging mercenary in Iraq "Off With Their Heads"

Whatever happened to the "No Off-Topic B.S." rule? In any case Tokyopop got the lineup, but answer me this; WHY THE HELL IS IT SO WRONG TO RELEASE A MANGA IN THE AMERICAN FORMAT? It's freaking unnatural to read it "Japanese Style". Gets on my nerves. I've tried it a few times, and I get migranes. Seesh. NOW GET BACK ON TOPIC RUBES! TRY AND CATCH ME, BIIIATCH!
