Sean Michael Wilson: 10 reasons why Comics are better than films

Sean Michael Wilson is a comic book writer from Scotland, now living in Japan.

*******************************************
He is the writer of the books:
ANGEL OF THE WOODS,
MANGA MOVER (one story in anthology),
the award winning BEAUTIFUL THINGS collection,
THE JAPANESE DRAWING ROOM historical manga with Sakura Mizuki,
YAOI VOLUME ONE (one story in anthology), LAFCADIO HEARN'S JAPANESE GHOST STORIES, IRAQ:Operation Corporate Takeover, a story with artist Yishan Li in the MAMMOTH BOOK OF BEST NEW MANGA Volume 2. The upcoming A CHRISTMAS CAROL comic book adaptation, with Mike Collins as artist. Also THE CANTERVILLE GHOST adaptation, and WUTHERING HEIGHTS comic book version, with the artist John M Burns.

***************************************
The types of subjects I tackle are normally mature stories: biographical, historical, slice of life, though sometimes also fantastical stuff, especially magickal stories. I have worked with various excellent professional artists (such as Sakura Mizuki of the popular RING horror series and Mike Collins, art on Superman, Batman and Harry Potter, etc).

I am currently making inroads towards being published in Japanese also - in fact my first Japanese manga comes out on 'keitai' June 2008. Living in Japan means that I am obviously in a good place to create manga stories, working directly with Japanese artists.

ショーン・マイケル・ウィルソンは、スコットランドの首都エジンバラの出身であり、現在は日本に在住し活動している。グラフィッィク・ノベル「ANGEL OF THE WOODS」、「CHIMPIRA （MANGA MOVER）」、アワードを受賞作である“詩漫画”　「BEAUTIFUL THINGS」、「YAOI Volume One」「A Christmas carol」「Iraq Operation Corporate takeover」のライターである。　
幼少の頃から、コミックブックを書くことは彼の夢であった。初めて出版された作品は１９９８年、ロンドンの大規模なコミックアートエキシビジョンにて展示された。
「THE JAPANESE DRAWING ROOM」は英国の美術館"Bournemouth"と共同で製作された。
「Iraq Operation Corporate takeover」は英国のチャリティー団体 War on Wantと共に出版された。
