Summary
Read the only book containing an appendix of eye losses, makes reference to hand gel depicting a gay assassin, and to compare a group of all-women Japanese comic book artists to a German electronic band.
In early 2020, Ian Wolf - manga critic in print and online, autistic comedic data specialist, and some time question writer for Richard Osman's House of Games - decided that the best way to keep himself occupied while Britain was in Covid lockdown was to write a humorous book about his favorite manga artists - CLAMP... the women behind such works as Cardcaptor Sakura, xxxHOLiC, X and Magic Knight Rayearth.
If you want to find out why the cases of the CLAMP School Detectives sound like challenges from Taskmaster, why almost everything in Magic Knight Rayearth is named after a car, why the British Museum illustrated their manga exhibit using the soft-core lesbian manga Miyuki-chan in Wonderland, or why the Cardcaptor Sakura Kinomoto's best friend has more than a whiff of The Fast Show's 13th Duke of Wybourne about her, this is the book for you.
