The Diffusion of Foreign Cultural Products: The Case Analysis of Japanese Comics (Manga) Market in the U. (pdf)
At work, don't have time to read this paper during my break... But it seems to be an interesting paper, collecting and analyzing the stats of published manga in the US.
I like the links from
ANN's "academic" column but I have a tendency to forget to read stuff I go ohh, cool! over ^_^;;
