Re: Manga releases in English?

Yea I'm gonna try to ask Kodansha as they handled the Japanese reprinting of his manga/short stories. I'll probably get some kind of generic corporate response, but it's worth a shot I guess.
I thought the only thing he did with Otomo was Magnetic Rose. Didn't know he had a hand in Akira as well.
Millennium Actress is probably my favorite film, but everything about it's release was handled terribly in the US.
