    Tim, I have been making my way through your website for the last few weeks and I just have to thank you for putting this site up. It goes far beyond just the “these are the comics I made route.”
    This Votoms guide is stunning. Following manga and anime in the U.S required a lot of extra “footwork” for me in 90-91, and somehow you managed to gather all of this in the mid 80’s and format it like this,on just one series!As you say..”anime fandom in the 80s was MOTIVATED.” We sure had to be then, but I cannot even imagine collecting all this and formatting it the way you were able to,far beyond the extra mile! I can definitely see this guide selling Central Park Media on importing the series to America. If that had come across my desk, I would have too! I know this is a long shot with so many years gone by, but is there anywhere a print copy of this guide could be picked up? I have been loving going over it here on the site the last week or so, but I would also love to sit down with a copy. If you would ever consider doing a self-published book collecting some of these things, I know that I would definitely buy one!
    Thanks for all this!
    Garry

      Much appreciated, Garry! The Guide was never actually made into a book. It was only ever passed around in loose photocopy form. If there were any bound versions, they were handmade by people who got a copy and wanted to make it into a book of their own.

      Central Park Media considered it, but opted not to because they didn’t think they could get copyright clearance on all the source material I put in.
