Would you like some manga?

I was getting ready to shut everything down on my computer and I happened to scroll down to the bottom of my Vox and came across an ad for Cliff Notes. Except, it wasn't any ordinary ad for Cliff Notes. It was an ad for Shakespeare: The Manga Edition.

So far they have "Hamlet", "Romeo & Juliet", "Macbeth", and "Julius Caesar" available. I mean, I'm all for getting kids to read but manga? Wow. Wasn't really expecting Shakespeare to show up in that form. Although it kind of makes sense. They're plays that are meant to be watched not read so putting them in comic book/manga form seems like a logical step. And who knows? Maybe they really will get kids more interested in Shakespeare.

Bruce Campbell

Ok, so I haven't actually read the comic book (I could only ever find the last couple in the series, not the first ones) but I've seen the movie and it's by Bruce Campbell so you really can't go wrong there. :-)
