Magna are book length stories told in a comic-book format. This Japanese art-form is rapidly growing among young people in the USA. Chris, a helpful employee at Kinokuniya Bookstore in NYC, gave me a brief tour of the Magna section there during a "Lolita Fashion Shoot" event I was videotaping. He explains a mural actually drawn by renowned Manga artist Inoue Takehiko on the wall of the second floor there & shows me some books those just getting interested in Magna might want to research.
