eigoManga Joins Devil's Due


eigoManga joins Devil's Due Publishing in release of Rumble Pak: "eigoMANGA Ltd. and Devil's Due Publishing, Inc. have announced the release of RUMBLE PAK vol.1 (OCT052934 E) an on-going, 64 pgs, B&W comic book series, beginning this December.

Previously released through eigoMANGA's own label, the on-going series will start with the latest line-up of original manga created by eigoMANGA STUDIOS and contributing artists.

We're excited to be bringing such a large offering of manga into the DDP fold. We've been looking for a way to offer a steady stream of manga to both comic book shops and bookstores, and found the perfect partner in eigoMANGA, said Joshua Baylock, president of Devil's Due, in a press release. I think it will be two-fold. For eigoMANGA, they will feel the company is amplifying its publishing and distribution capabilities. This should give retailers even more confidence in eigoMANGA product.

For Devil's Due, they will see that we are finally moving into the manga market, although slowly, and adding even more diversity to our company line-up."
