comic books and manga

I just implemented a new tool into my regimen. As suggested by the japanshop.com, I got a copy of Shonen Jump, a huge manga magazine for young boys. The big advantage is that every kanji has furigana above it explaining its reading. I used this and my canon wordtank to figure out and read the first two pages. I was slowed down a little bit because I was turning unknown vocabulary and kanji into paper flashcards. I bought word cards when I was visiting Japan. I had been dreading doing it but it's kind of fun. I am at Atom Cafe, a manga/internet cafe in New York where my wife and I usually go on Saturdays. It's been a little overwhelming to come every week and be overwhelmed by how much kanji I still don't know but it finally struck me that I can hit the Shonen Jump, have a little fun, and make some progress on the kanji reading front. (I finished RTKI in June but I really need to keep reviewing.) I have a copy of Shonen Jump I bought at the airport, but the fact that I'm paying $15 to be in this cafe and manga library motivates me to get the most out of my time here. Except I've just reached saturation point and am checking out the forums.
