ZEN IS:-
Not reliant on the written word,
A special transmission separate from the scriptures,
Direct pointing at one's mind,
Seeing one's nature, becoming a Buddha.
-- Bodhidharma.

Incredibly lucid, clever rendering of basic tenets of Zen, and of Zen koans, through the medium of the comic strip. Non-threatening to the novice, a delight for the more advanced practioner. The artwork is excellent, often mixing the author's clever comic style with gorgeous, realistic drawings of Buddhist statuary.
