At Publishers Weekly, Calvin Reid accomplishes the seemingly impossible. He speaks to someone from Kodansha Comics:
“Irie said Kodansha Comics will begin gradually and announce more titles for its list later in the year. While the new line will focus on translating Kodansha’s prodigious backlist of bestselling titles into English, he did not rule out original publishing. ‘It is one of our eventual ambitions,’ said Irie.”
Reid promises the full interview in this week’s Comics Week newsletter, due Tuesday.
