An ex-pat in Japan experiences all things Japanese as ordered online! Dirk lived in Tokyo, had a comics blog where he had people dare him to try all sorts of different things - exotic, disgusting, revealing, whatever! - in this land of the Rising Sun, and then relate it with funky humor on the blog. The result is quite a fascinating inside look at the Japanese society, how they live, how they think, what they eat. Moresukine is the Japanese way of pronouncing "Moleskin," as these comics were created on one. This graphic novel comes designed exactly like a Moleskin - black cover, rounded edges, ribbon page mark. "What a fun idea," said Neil Gaiman, and other artists also contribute with their take on this adventure including James Kochalka and Ryan North.
