Being the huge Zelda fan that I am, I found myself unable to pass up the OoT manga when I stumbled upon it in the local book store. I expected it to be an okay adaptation but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it actually improved upon the storyline. On my next trip I made sure to pick up Majora's Mask and A Link to the Past.
Anyone else reading these?

I didn't even know these existed. If they're good, I might check them out one of these days.

I read the Nintendo Power Link to the Past a long time ago. I took some massive liberties with the plot, but some of the panels were pretty well drawn, with some great full-page spreads that were very colorful (whereas others looked like a kid drew them, mainly the smaller ones where there were something like 7 on a page...)
Obviously it is not technically a manga but...wait, I think it was drawn by a Japanese guy. So hey it is a manga then!

I read the Minish Cap manga before I ever considered playing the game. It was pretty cool; gave the overall story but left enough out that it was worth playing the game for the rest (well, that and the actual game part).
However, I think my favorite is the 4-panel comics for Wind Waker. That Link's so goofy.

The art in the new LttP is amazing but I'll always enjoy the original by Shotaro Ishinomori because of how whimsical it was. I highly recommend both.
