Objection! Love Phoenix Wright? Love manga? Love both? Then check out Phoenix Wright: Turnabout with the Wind, the first chapter of the official Phoenix Wright manga unofficially translated into English.
Or, you can download the translated manga to view at your leisure from Court Records (a Phoenix Wright fansite).
I actually held off importing the game's sequel ("Justice for All"), but with all this Phoenix Wright goodness, I might just have to cave in.

Phoenix Wright is crack. Seriously, this is one of the most fun, outrageous video games I've played yet. (Proving yet again that the Nintendo DS is THE system to get for the best games.)
Sure, it's not a shoot-em-up fest with aliens or terrorists. And no, it's not an immersive sandbox-style "RPG" that sucks your soul into "Oblivion". There's not even a place to get your hair done or a crook named Nook you have to sell yourself into slavery to.
But as "interactive manga" (which is how I've described it to everyone who's asked), this game is crazy delicious. Taking on the role of rookie defense attorney Phoenix Wright, every case is a roller coaster ride of digging up bizarre clues and then using them to press witnesses in the courtroom.
I'm so enthralled that I put the Japanese sequel ("Justice for All") on preorder this week (it has an English language option), just so I won't have to wait until Spring 2007 for more gaming goodness. Plus, since the preorder comes with Phoenix Wright decals for the DS, pretty soon I'll be able to have some porcupine-head bling-bling on my very own system.
If you're a DS owner, you definitely need to check this game out. I'm nearly(?) through with my copy, so I might even let you borrow mine for awhile. So "hold it!", stop "objecting" and "take that!" Phoenix Wright all the way!
