I will do so. There are many excellent manga, trade paperbacks, and monthly comics that I'm sure many forum members would be interested in.

To start, I think I've mentioned it in another forum but a manga I strongly recommend is "Afterschool Charisma" by Kumiko Suekane. It's set in an academy in the near future where every student (with one exception, the son of a professor at the academy) is a teenage clone of a famous historical figure. Among the students are Albert Einstein, Florence Nightingale, Marie Curie, Napoleon Bonaparte, Sigmund Freud, and Queen Elizabeth I. I've read the first volume (the only one released) and I'm waiting for the next book.

Thanks for reading.
