Yeah, a lot of them are amateurish - I was trying to use less well-known comics so fewer people would have run across them, so the better, more recognizable ones weren't an option. I've got a ton more scans, though: maybe I'll put up another one with more accomplished ones. (Not like it's a scientific poll anyway. :D)

I think part of the difference with US and Japan in the manga industry is also that the US creators tend to be working alone or with only 1 or 2 more people while the Japanese work in teams, and the teams members may bring more experience to the table, so you have the advantage of both specialization - when someone specializes in drawing backgrounds and does nothing but, they're going to get very good at it more quickly than they would if they had to do layout and pencil the figures - plus experience in having worked on other manga before.
