Das Kapital the Manga

You may or may not be aware but someone attempted to turn Karl Marx's Capital into a Manga. It's been officially released in English for a frankly ridiculous price. There's two volumes of it and it's well its interesting. It use a farm boy turned cheese industrialist to explain the economics.

I haven't actually read Capital (well a couple a bits) so I don't really know how well it translates but it does an all right job explaining some of the basic concepts and the story while incredibly blunt (the foreman is a giant and walks around with a club for example).

So anyone whose read Capital want to take a look at it and see how well it does? Potentially it could be a very good ice breaker for the real thing.
