I’ll be writing up some more of my observations about NYCC shortly, but in the meantime, check out ComiPress’s monster list of reports from the con, or just go straight to Gia and Deb, who between them were everywhere and saw everything. Be sure to check out Gia’s Q&A post. And at Manga Recon, Kate Dace presents her own take on days 1, 2, and 3 of the con, picking up some interesting tidbits that went unnoticed by everyone else, like the panel on indy manga in Japan on day 1. Chloe didn’t make it to the con, but she has some interesting analysis at Shuchaku East.
At MangaCast, Ed Chavez is all over the new license news, with cover images and comments on Viz’s new cooking manga Oishinbo, Dark Horse’s Clover omnibus, Digital’s Tezuka acquisition, Swallowing the Earth, and the latest acquisitions from CMX, DMP and 801, Yen Press, Del Rey, and even Bandai.
