Neon Genesis Evangelion: Comic Tribute by Various, Carl Gustav Horn

I never thought I'd be reviewing a doujinshi collection but that is exactly what Dark Horse Comics has presented us: a collection of doujinshi shorts centered around Neon Genesis Evangelion, written and illustrated by a wide variety of established manga-ka (although most of them are better known in Japan than in the United States). Dark Horse seems to be the place to go for Evangelion spin-off manga since Viz has the actual manga firmly in its grasp for eternity. Honestly, as far as short collections go, it's not the worst but it certainly won't appeal to everyone, especially casual fans who aren't tuned in to every reference and in-show nuance of Evangelion's ever-growing canon.

Un tributo [parodia] perfecto! Me mantuvo riendo de principio a fin. Contiene muchas parodias de temas que siempre sentí absurdos en la serie, por ejemplo: el que nadie se quejara al respecto de que durante la batalla alguien perdiera su casa o considerara a NERV como una organización sobre valorada.
En fin, lo recomiendo!
