Really? I think American comics are still pretty much American comics. I think it would be a stretch to say American comics are going through a "Japanese wave" or anything like that.

I have never heard of that. You might be thinking of an American version of The Dirty Pair that came out, but those artists lived in the US.

I am not sure what this sentence means. Are you saying it would be easier for an foreigner to make manga in Japan than a Japanese to make comics in America? Considering the trade deficit of American comics to Japan VS manga to America, I think that would be a hard argument to make.
