secret asian man is here


Speaking of Chinese restaurants... here's a recent Secret Asian Man strip that illustrates an age-old universal truth. Tak Toyoshima's comic strip finally gets national daily exposure from United Features Syndicate, and will appear in newspapers across the country (as well as comics.com) starting today. It's the first-ever nationally syndicated comic strip featuring an Asian American leading character.

Here's a recent interview with Tak in the Nichi Bei Times: The Secret's Out!: Tak Toyoshima's 'Secret Asian Man' Becomes First Asian American Lead Character to be Nationally Syndicated. And here's another good one from entertainment and style site Current Vine: A Chat with Tak Toyoshima. Secret Asian Man! Coming soon to your daily paper's comics section.
