[edit] Size of comic industry
"On page 31 Thomson and Thompson, from the famous Belgian comic strip Tintin, make an appearance. This also references the fact that Belgium has the largest comics industry next to the United States."
This statement appears to say that the United States has the largest comic industry in the world and Belgium has the second largest. Is this true? The comic industry in Japan is pretty big. Wouldn't it be better to say simply that many important (French language) comics originate in Belgium.
- maybe: "largest producer of original comics in Europe" ? Japan's comic industry is massive (it's considered mainstream there so the manga sector alone is huge even before you include doijin (independent/underground titles))--Invisifan 12:48, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
