Leader of the Manga Revolution - Press Release

Anime News Network - Press Release: "Comic-Con-San Diego, CA (July 2005) – TOKYOPOP, America’s number one graphic novel publisher and Leader of the Manga Revolution, is psyched to announce the debut of Psy-Comm. Creators Jason Henderson (Sword of Dracula), Tony Salvaggio and Rising Stars of Manga artist Shane Granger team up to give fans a precognitive look into the corporate sponsored wars of tomorrow where genetically altered combatants are treated like celebrities. For fans of science fiction combat and super powered humans Psy-Comm promises to be a unique hybrid combining the best elements of both genres.

In the not-too-distant future, sovereign nations have been replaced by corporate city-states. War is entertainment and the stars are psychic commandos, known as 'Psy-Comms.' Trained from an early age, these gifted soldiers have honed their abilities to lethal perfection. In the corp-state of Electromedia, a young man named Mark Leit is destined to become the greatest Psy-Comm of all time. But a tragedy from his past, and a desire for redemption, will cause Mark to abandon everything for which his life has stood. In the eyes of his partner and best friend, Mark’s decision will be the ultimate act of betrayal.

'I’m personally really excited about Psy-Comm, ' says TOKYOPOP editor Bryce Coleman. 'It’s a cool new manga property on an epic scale. '

I'm Psyched!!!
