Have you tried any that are criticallyhighly regarded? I certainly wouldn't describe the art in Akira or any of Otomo's books as "questionable". Obviously there's cheaper stuff out there but there is extremely high quality Manga.

Also a lot of the more big name manga are shonen which can run the range of of "questionable" which makes it harder for westerners to get into. While seinen for example generally doesn't have as much fan service overall but its often times not as much or it is recontextualized as bad, for example that horse in Bezerk.
