    Volume 1 - 1st printing.

    Story and art by Usumaru Furuya.

    So what is this fascination with that extreme variant of the Japanese teenage girl; that highly evolved creation of Japan's frenetically trendy consumer culture... the ko-gal?

    Short Cuts is the comic strip that takes you on a bizarre illustrated journey into the ko-gal's world. In his American book-publication debut, creator Usumaru Furuya takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the ko-gal with his characteristic bizarre, irreverent, and often surreal humor.

    In this volume: Crushes and more crushes! Mariko emerges from puff of smoke strangely transformed-with a craving for carrots; Zero Boy is obsessed with Maria, who doesn't even know he exists; and Muku, the "adorable" babe everyone is flirting with, just happens to be a Bigfoot!

    Also, a hilarious spoof on shopping networks, weight-loss, and a how-(NOT)-to-dress for school!

    Softcover, 5-in. x 8-in., 120 pages, B&W.

    Cover price $12.95.
