Film Comics.
Basically color manga made entirely of cel setups--there's no additional art
beyond that in the film--with the complete dialog for the film (sometimes minus
an occasional background line) in the word balloons for the manga and overlays
of the usual manga sound effect words. Different from the film comics published
by Koudansha in 1984.

Contains 330 color illustrations from "Nausicaa." The first third of
the book features illustrations used for posters and manga covers. Next
to each illustration is commentary by Miyazaki. The second third
features imageboards for the movie. The final third features a
seven-page interview with Miyazaki followed by 46 pages with over 190
concept sketches. These sketches provide a fascinating window into
Miyazaki's preliminary ideas for the Nausicaa saga. Amidst this
treasure trove of discarded and unused ideas are
experimental costumes and
vehicles, prototype ship designs,
and bits saved for later movies.
Extra bonuses:
a guide matching Animage issues to the Collected Volumes,
a reprinted diagram from the Japanese edition not published in any of
the English translations, and four autobiographical cartoons about
creating Nausicaa.
(Two cartoons and their rough translations can be see on Marc
Hairston's web site, -- The first one is located about a fourth of
the way down the web page, the second is about half way down.) Under
the dust jacket, the book's cover displays eight Animage magazine issues
that featured Nausicaa on the cover.
Softcover, 30 x 23 cm (12 x 9 inches), 208 pages.

The picture on the
top and the information above is for the AM JuJu book, and the picture on the
bottom is an insert included with the March 1986 Animage. Perhaps they got a lot
of interest in the insert, so they expanded it into the book. The insert has no ISBN.
The AM JuJu book is 157 pages.
