Stan Lee.... Manga Writer ?

Posted Apr-25-08 04:11:17 PDT Updated May-06-08 07:39:07 PDT

 

Stan Lee... Manga Writer?

So What's Stan Lee up to now?

Well for one thing, Stan Lee is actually teaming up with VIZ Media to help debut the prologue chapter of Viz's ULTIMO (otherwise known as KARAKURIDÔJI ULTIMO)!

What's that you say?  Well, the 32 page prologue will debut in a special April 2008 issue of the Japanese manga magazine 'Jump SQ.'.

We don't mention manga here very much, so what 'Jump SQ.' actually is, it's the 'sibling publication' of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump!

Ok, so what's that? Well historically that has been the best selling manga magazine in Japan!

This special project that Stan is involved in, is a stand-alone issue called Jump SQ.II.

Quoting Stan now.. he says, "I am deeply honored for this great opportunity to collaborate with an award-winning artist/writer of the stature of Hiroyuki Takei. I enthusiastically expect that the combination of an American story-telling style merged with Takei-san's acclaimed Japanese style will result in our joint creation 'ULTIMO' presenting an original, exciting type of manga that will appeal to comic book fans around the world."

Stan was never one for short phrases!

So for you Stan Lee fans, take a look at this manga project and let us know what you think of it!

For those of you that are new to our blog, we have an ongoing comics and pop culture convention here at Make It So Marketing, what with our daily blog posts and listings of items for sale!

Just wanted to say this should be interesting to see Stan Lee doing manga!

I still have a shounen jump bag from the last otakon I attended - though, of course I am a shoujo fan. ^_~

kaioh75: G'morning!

We see a lot of manga and anime for sale when at the San Diego Comic con on
the exhibition floor.

When we want to sit down and rest for a while,
we even stop and check out a few minutes of anime being
shown in 3 rooms during the con!

Haven't personally seen what Stan is going to do,
but at 85 years of age he still is going strong!

Thanks for stopping in and saying howdy this morning!

kaioh75: Trying out this leaving the comments option on for a while,
until it falls off the front page.

If only eBay had a program that would let a blogger know when a comment
has been added to an archived blog post it would be so much easier to
leave comments option on all the time.... but it appears it will never
happen!

I think if you RSS, it works kind of like a newsgroup, but you still have to check back. At least you can see at a glance though.
It would be nice to have notice! I miss some comments on mine sometimes cuz of that.

I'm out for the morning now. ^_^ Have a good one!
