SDCC wrapup

Posted on July 30, 2007 by Brigid Alverson

The CMX folks announced a few new titles at their SDCC panel on Sunday: A Girl Who Runs Through Time, by Gaku Tsugano; Teru Teru × Shōnen, by Shigero Takao; and The Flat Earth Exchange, by Toshimo Nigoshi. Giapet adds A Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo, by Yasutaka Tsutsui, Shirley, a maid series by Kaoru Mori, creator of Emma, and a “volume 8” of Emma that features short stories about the characters.

Del Rey has posted some (rather blurry) photos of art from one of its new titles, Yokaiden, by Nina “spacecoyote” Matusmoto.

And if you’re afraid you missed something, ANN has gathered all their SDCC reports onto a single page, and ComiPress has a comprehensive roundup of links to SDCC coverage. Manganews has a wrapup and comments as well. At Comics 212, Christopher Butcher has some thoughts on his way out of town.

    Just thought I’d note – Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo and A Girl who Runs Through Time are the same series. :)

    Can’t for the life of me figure out why they went with “A Girl who Runs Through Time.” Lacks the marketing oomph of “The Girl who Leapt Through Time.”
