Maximum Ride - Manga Volume 1 & 2

My son read the book, I decided to read the manga! First try of Patterson. Guess this is Patterson's first go at young adult fiction. As I stated earlier in the month the NY Times had an interesting article on Patterson Inc.
Probably should read the real novel and determine how closely the manga version matches. My son said it was pretty close. I thought the manga version was very well done...interesting to note the art was actually by a Korean! Gee they even outsource Japanese art! Overall the story was good although come on who would name the main character "Maximum Ride"? Kind of cheesy. Perhaps I am just a snob but this series has a lot of silly book titles
