    It's been done before but they usually draw separate stories/pages within the manga, not all drawing different parts of the same panels.

    Sounds interesting though. If you think it will work, contact them and see what they think.

    Only if you have the jobs for each clearly laid out so there's no confusion and all the parts mesh together well... Depends on the capability of the artists to work together and make a finish product that looks like one work

    You have to make sure you're all on the same page. The finished product should look as if it was all made by one person; can't have things clashing and all.

    Yeah, this is quite common for comics and graphic novels I think. Cartoons are animated by sometimes hundreds of people. Usually you can't tell, but sometimes the style will vary slightly.

    There's a manga artist group called CLAMP that publish manga titles together, such as xxxHOLIC (which I highly recommend if you're into the supernatural... and no, it's not porn), and the Tsubasa Chronicles.
