“What a fun idea” -- Neil Gaiman (Sandman, Neverwhere)
“A hell of a lot of fun to read, and a great idea for a comics/journal

blog” -- Evan Dorkin (Milk & Cheese, Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent
Adventures)

These stars of the comics world are talking about Moresukine: Uploaded

Weekly from Tokyo by Dirk Schwieger. Until recently, Schwieger lived
in Tokyo, and readers of his comics blog dared him to do all sorts of
things—exotic, disgusting, revealing, whatever—and he obeyed! This
fascinating, funny, funky collection of his blog entries looks inside
Japanese society, life, thought, and food.

Moresukine is the Japanese way of pronouncing Moleskine; Schwieger
created his comics on a Moleskine brand notebook, and his graphic novel

looks like one. James Kochalka (American Elf), Ryan North (Dinosaur
Comics), and other artists contribute their views of Schwieger’s
adventure. Black-and-white Moleskine-style trade paperback, 5” x 8
1/2”, 176 pages, $15.95, ISBN 978-1-56163-537-5.
