Yeah, I actually asked if I could work on G Gundam, ironically enough.

I just found your name on the inside cover page. That's pretty insane...
T.T I wish they had all 3 volumes though. Now I'm gonna have to get the other two online or something...

Small question: Was it a translation error, or were you told to change the names of the God Gundam and Devil Gundam? I was reading the manga, and it kinda irked me, as I was used to hearing God and Devil gundam in Japanese.

Since the G Gundam manga was being aimed at kids who watched the series on Cartoon Network, the names reflect those of the dubbed version of the series. Bandai changed the names in the first place as to not offend people as the series itself has a lot of ethnic stereotypes in it and adding relgious ones to that is just asking for trouble in a show being broadcast after school.
