OK, OK. I am a nerd. I am aware of this fact. But I read this in an afternoon and really enjoyed it.
It is a fan-made doujin that has been put out by Capcom, comprised of many short stories in the manga style. This means that the art style varies from story to story. Some are serious, some are funny; the characters' looks and tone may change radically from one story to the next. This does not bother me at all, in fact, I think the book is much richer for the variety.

No rating? That can't be good. Its true for the first book on this review.
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Official Casebook Vol.1 - The Phoenix Wright Files VERSION: For the official phoenix wright manga scroll down further [on this site, they share the same page].
Mainly just skimmed through this. Its a disappointment when I flipped through the pages and struggled to find a story with good art to catch my attention.
OH THE ART.

Felt there were a few inconsistancies with the characters and a little bit of the storyline considering the characters from the original games. And I'd like to not that the artist has a tendency to draw everyone...big...Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth look a lot older than they should be because of their extra "weight".
I am not ashamed to admit that I read manga. Nor am I ashamed to admit that I read THIS manga. You can make fun of me when I start reading stuff like Suzuka. Which I won't ever do. So there.
Something many fans of the games would enjoy. It's something you would need to read after playing the games otherwise a lot of the jokes and stories won't make much sense.
A light-hearted series of vignettes based on the best-selling Capcom videogame series for the DS, this manga captures the charm of the games if not the intelligence. Because the story is a collection written by a slew of guest artists, the quality of both art and story varies from page to page. It isn't the best manga I've ever read, but it's a nice fix for those who want more Phoenix Wright, Maya, Pearl and Co.
As much as my love of Phoenix Wright abides, this collection of short manga tales are too scattershot and the translation too spotty to make it a very enjoyable read. A lot of the in-jokes fall flat, even for a die-hard fan of the series.
There are one or two interesting and laugh-out-loud funny moments, but far too few to warrant a true recommendation.
