Comics and cartoons

NPR has an article and a short audio piece on the growing acceptance of foreign comics titles in the US; mostly it looks at the immense increase over the last decade in manga sales (a pattern repeated in many countries, including even BD-mad France), but also works like the Monsieur Jean tales by the award-winning Dupuy and Berberian (published in English by the good folks at Drawn & Quarterly).
