Robama wants YOU to buy American!

Yes. This is real.



For what it's worth, technically DC isn't responsible for this--the shop is.

I guess it should be pointed out (if it wasn't already obvious) that anyone trading in a manga volume for a single comicbook is getting ripped off.

For legality...

Words cannot even do justice to my anger towards this silly gimmick by DC Comics (which may have been inspired by Marvel). They should focus more on doing good comics instead of trying to injure their distinguished competition.

Besides, was not Jim Lee a hardcore fan of Masamune Shirow? Dude does not have much loyalty to his inspirations once he sees the dollar symbols.

Ohh, Mea Culpa for accidentally thinking that DC was 100 % responsible for that gimmick. I think I got caught by the passional fires of wrath. Still DC should do better than to allow these kinds of ads.

One thing worth mentioning is that there is no way we are trading a 180 pages manga volume for 20 pages of a story that WILL be retconned in a few years.
