Re: so is manga a type of comic
There are American, European, and other versions (like Batman), and the Japanese versions (that's manga).
Manga is a totally different style and there are more erm.. types? of it. American comics tend to be more about, you know, superheroes. At least the more successful ones. Manga can be about romance, mystery,00000, anything. Manga readers also tend to be a different crowd than the comic readers. Not trying to be stereotypical here, though. I'm just trying to answer the question about why people get offended. Manga is more for sissies in the comic readers' eyes, and comics aren't interesting in the manga readers' eyes. Typically. There are ALWAYS exceptions to the stereotypes.
Manga and comics are read differently, drawn differently, and written differently. In other words, they are just different. Like how a square is a type of rectangle, yet they are different. Same sort of idea... but different species.
Hope I helped.

Yup, Zero's right, we say manga to adress to the particular japanese comic art type solely, but one should be mindful that for the japanese, manga designates any type of comic.
