Anyone else checked this brand new series from manga mastermind Urasawa?

It's steeped in comic book history as well as conspiracies. Imagine a golden age character a cross between Mickey Mouse and Batman. It follows its creator who ends up going back to Japan during the occupation when he thinks he copied the character from a manga he might have seen. The story gets much much more complex and astounding from there. It makes Lost look like Sesame Street. It has some of the oddest and most interesting twists and turns I've ever seen.
If you like a good mystery, and you know Urasawa loves to put those out, check it out. It's up to like chapter 16 so far, which is nothing for the long epic tales he tells. Though you'll have to do it under.. -cough- means which I cannot disclose via the rules of this board. Well, unless you can get the Japanese magazine with it and can read Japanese.
