Hey, what ever happened to that other book that was supposed to have been delivered by now? :D I know it was not from this same company, & cannot even recall what it was.

Anyway, if I were to do anything here, it would be the $650 for all, but I just spent nearly that much on the set 1 reprints. :rolleyes:

:blush: I had forgotten about it, Tetsuwan Atom, until I was viewing this project's KS page. I am not too interested in that title, but would jump on the KS for the older of the two LION BOOKS.

No way that title is one of the best Tezuka titles ''The Crater'' is based on such series as the Outer Limits and Twilight zone so i think you will really like it ;)
I already have it in French but since i'm not fluently in it , i have only yet flipped through it.
Also there is a English scanlation .... but i am just waiting impatiently on that luxe hardcover edition from Kunsai but the last update was last summer ... so it's still not clear what is gonna happen with it :(
In the worst case scenario we ended up spending money for nothing and aren't getting it back :eek:

:lol: TTZ & TOL? I would like those; yet Loin Book has about 4 or 5 stories that were adapted into :astro: 1963 series!

Sadly, as this project has a mere 6% of its funding, it seems doomed to fail. :cry:

Looks like Digital Manga only managed to meet 7% of their goal. They only raised $26,971 of the $380,000 goal:

(Really now, I don't know what the hell they were expecting with something this ludicrous and poorly organized.)

Though with Xmas approaching, this is a bad time of the year for such a project; still, it sure seems that it should have done significantly better than 7%.

Yet it made $10,000 in a single day, while the Dororo anime needs only $2700 on Anime Sols and has made a whopping $284 in almost 2 months.
