Looking forward to the series, Curtis! I’ve got my notebook with comments I jotted down while reading through ‘64-’70 that I hope to post soon, but I’m criminally lazy… :(

Also, if you can find it for cheap, Garo Mandala is a pretty good reference for covers and works published. Not sure if it has name pronunciation guides, though…

I started summarizing and commenting on the stories in Garo, beginning with July, 1967, because that’s when the prices for used copies becomes more reasonable. Planning on doing this with one issue/week. First issue ran last Monday. The title index here is very useful for me primarily because I’m having trouble tracking down pronunciation guides for some of the author names.

Ian, you can find some scans of pages (for review purposes only of course) on my Nihon-go Hunter blog.

Really interesting stuff. I’m curious as to which library had the full run of Garo. I’m interested in translating some of the stories and have had no luck in Vermont. I’m at the point where I’d consider traveling just to see all the issues. If you could send me an e-mail, that would be great.

Thanks.

Hi. My name is Hudson, I´m a literature and comunication grad student in Brazil. As a matter of fact, I´m trying to write a paper on Suehiro Maruo´s work, and during my ongoing research I became more and more interested in Garo magazine. I found some covers and some one-shot stories published on Garo, but that´s pretty much all I´ve found. The local library does not hold any collection of the magazine (it doesn´t have ANY comics at all), and most of my work is being made by online research and the few books on the subject I have access to (some in brazilian editions, some in imported editions). I´d really like to read the paper you talked about, the one you wrote “last semester”. Could you send me the file by e-mail? I´d be very grateful if you could.

Do you know of any digitalized Garo magazine issues I could download?

Thanks in advance!
