Thanks to our friends at Cliffsnotes, classic literature is now being offered in Manga format:
http://www.cliffsnotes.com/WileyCDA/Section/CliffsNotes-The-Manga-Editions.id-310791.html
A lot of them are Shakespeare, but other offerings include "The Scarlet Letter" and "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn."
Unlike the other offerings that have made cliffsnotes a college student staple (much like the hoodie), these aren't free. You have to buy 'em for $9.99, but sample panels appear on the site.
I admit to scrambling around cliffsnotes to survive some of the challenges in my high school lit classes -- now my younger brother faced with the same literary conundrums has Manga versions available. I'm not sure whether I'm saddened... or jealous.
