Like others in this series, a good introduction to ancient Asian philosophy, in this case Buddhism. The illustrations are gentle. For a comic it is text-heavy, but the essentials of the philosophy are there, in an accessible format. I've studied Buddhism before, but I noticed how refreshing it was to hear the words of the original Buddha (or close to) rather than the myriad schools of interpretation which have come after. The parts I gained from this volume were:
1. You must test your own truths, even if the Buddha himself tells you something.
2. The way to Nirvana is through living practice
3. The 'middle way' between hedonism and ascetism
4. The concept of 'kong' sounds a bit like the Tao ( )
