Not true, actually. I asked my daughter to look for some Thai comics for me and, astoundingly, she did, though she had never set foot in a comic book store on U.S. soil. She found a comic shop near a place ominously called "the night market" and told me she went up and talked to "some dude that looked like a Thai version of you." Amazingly, she obviously found the coolest dude in Thailand. He hooked her up with some comics I read as soon as they came out of her suitcase! Thanks Fah!
