Korean retelling of "Cupid and Psyche," or possibly some Korean myth I don't recognize. The translation and production quality are excellent; I only wish for more cultural notes.The art is gorgeous. ( )

Stunningly pretty art (especially the full-color pages that Dark Horse has fortunately chosen to preserve) accompanies what could be a fairly mediocre story--a young, beautiful girl is sacrificed to marry a god, so that he will lift a drought on her family's country. The god turns out to have a daytime Small Obnoxious Boy body, and a nighttime Hot Studmuffin body, but initially he tells her that she is two different people, and she thinks the Small Obnoxious Boy is her husband. By the second book, though, she's figuring out on her own that they may well be the same person--thus saving her from the fate of resembling in any way Yu Watase's brainless, world-traveling Miaka, or other numbskulls of her ilk.

Pretty, not perfect, but certainly worth reading. ( )

Beautifully drawn and wonderful storyline and cast of characters. To draw a comparasion, picture Neil Gaiman's Endless with a dash of Tomoko Hayakawa's The Wallflower chibi humor. My only regret is that the volumes don't come out fast enough :) ( )
