If you haven't tried a graphic novel before, this series is a good place to start.  The stories are really an offshoot of the book series and I have found myself getting more out of the pictures than any descriptive terms I can read.  I checked these out from my library. They have a huge selection of manga books there.  I just wait until there are no kids around though since i usually get strange looks.
