ONE MIGHT BE TEMPTED to think that “The Adventures of Johnny Bunko” ($15, Riverhead Trade) is a joke, or at the very least, mis-shelved. What’s this comic book doing in the career section, anyway? But author Daniel Pink, who last year received a fellowship to study manga (Japanese comics) in Japan, is serious about his new manga-style business book. The thin volume contains six “big-picture” career lessons (“Persistence trumps talent,” for example) about how to succeed in today’s workplace, delivered by a bevy of big-eyed, small-mouthed characters slogging away in cube hell. Sailor Moon this definitely ain’t.
