Indeed! I've met a staggering amount of artists over the years who always named her their very first inspiration. I hope that this opens the door for them considering more mangaka, and more women!

I agree with you on both points.

I was really happy to see Rumiko Takahashi up for the Eisner Hall of Fame; as soon as I saw she was up for induction, I made sure my votes this year were in as I could, just to be on the safe side! An honor a long time coming!

Absolutely awesome news I was so happy to hear this over the summer.
