Tezuka in the USA: A Manga Publishers' Forum

6:30-8:30 pm

Meet representatives from Tezuka's US publishers and gain insights into one of the fastest-growing segments in book publishing in America: manga (Japanese comics). The panel will be moderated by Alvin Lu of VIZ Media (publisher of Tezuka's Phoenix), and will include speakers Anne Ishii of Vertical (publisher of Buddha), Carl Gustav Horn of Dark Horse (publisher of Astro Boy), and Ian Robertson of VIZ Media. Speakers will discuss the experience of bringing Japan's "God of Manga" to American shores and how Tezuka's influence continues to pervade the current manga boom in the US. Plus: special previews of new and forthcoming publications. This program offered in conjunction with Tezuka: The Marvel of Manga on view through September 9, 2007.
