• vom_marlowe is asking who's your favorite mangaka, strictly style-wise?



• TechKnitting -- Why did no one tell me about this? This blogger would be awesome if only for her 3-in-1 circular join that eliminates the jog and weaves in your ends at the same time. While a lot of technique articles tend to be things I already know (how to gauge, etc.), TechKnitter actually provides new tips and tricks on old techniques. I think my favorite may be the 3-in-1 join and the tips on long-tail cast-on.
  
  Now all I need to do is email her to ask about good ways to do tubular cast-on in circular, non 1x1 rib tubular cast-on, and the possibilities of using Kitcherner stitch to graft together things in patterns (ribbing and anything non-stockinette and non-garter).



• And I ask everyone what comics or manga you can think of that have stories-within-stories, or stories that comment on each other (aka, the text narrative is telling a different story than the graphic narrative, but they illuminate each other)?

Not sure it's exactly what you're talking about, but there's this moment during The Road to Civil War, one of the Spidey stories I think, where the editors start debating whether or not the Superhero registration act is a good thing...

(paraphrased)
Editor: Stay tuned for tragic developments in this story.
Editor: Some might not consider the events tragic as much as a misguided over-reaction
Editor: Well, some people might themselves be misguided and lack the proper understanding of the necessity of said developments.
Editor: Or maybe they believe that the ends don't justify the means.
(etc.)

These little editorial comments overlapped about three pages of the characters in a fight that neither realized was tied into the Superhero Registration Act.
