The Dead Boy Detectives (Comic Book) / int_db08a39d	comment	Animesque: The Western comic is advertised as a "manga digest" and is drawn in the style of a manga. It's black and white, the characters have oversized heads and eyes, the characters are introduced with hobbies and blood types ("he hasn't got any; he's a ghost!") and hallmark Japanese visual arts tropes like Luminescent Blush and Face Fault are used to indicate the characters' feelings.
