Klappentext

From "Ponchi (Punch)" to the starting line of modern manga--the evolution of Japanese manga culture nurtured by satire and humor.
Japanese manga magazines, which began as vehicles for political satire, evolved into a form of mass culture following the influence of "Ponchi (Punch)" culture and the pioneering efforts of artists such as Okamoto Ippei. Through numerous illustrations and items from a rare collection, this book traces the lineage of manga magazines, from the era of speech suppression up to modern manga.
