Now, now, there is some great manga out there - the problem is just finding it. Unlike Western comics, manga is produced with various target markets in mind (by age, gender, genre) and it does take some searching. It's the remembering to read right to left that kills me.

I stick to the laptop with the 15" screen to read comics and graphic novels (using *.cbr and *.cbz files and CDisplay). It's hard enough to read non-sequential pages (2 page splashes or panels read all the way across two pages and then down) on a large laptop.
