At least 4 or 5 Manga titles and not one Marvel or DC or indie Western graphic novel or comic series. Manga is dominating the sequential art market in Brooklyn, where I was born and lived most of my youth. Even though Spiderman was from Queens, we accepted him ;l

I worked at the Brooklyn Museum in the mid-80s, which is right around the corner along with the the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, and Prospect Park. I also lived 5 blocks from the NY Public Library in the late 80s, and I have fond memories of spending my time at all of them. After rent in NYC, not much cash leftover, so not bad places to hang instead of being the guttersnipes we were in our youth.

Amulet is a graphic novel series written by an American author and illustrator. I don't know what you would qualify as indie, but Amulet might.
I'll check it out. Thanks!
