Manga Face [Sketch Guide]

Manga consist of comics and print cartoons, which developed in Japan in the late 20th century. In their modern form, manga date from shortly after World War II but they have a long, complex pre-history in earlier Japanese art.

In Japan, people of all ages read manga. The genre includes a broad range of subjects: action-adventure, romance, sports and games, historical drama, comedy, business and commerce, science fiction and fantasy, mystery, horror, sexuality and others.

Since the 1950s, manga have steadily become a major part of the Japanese publishing industry, representing a 406 billion yen market in Japan in 2007 (approximately $3.6 billion). Manga have also become increasingly popular worldwide.
