Link o’ the Day: Carl Horn on Love and Wonder

By: Michelle Smith

On a day that sees speculation about one manga publisher’s fate and massive layoffs at another, Carl Horn of Dark Horse posts a timely (and ultimately encouraging) essay celebrating that publisher’s long history of bringing manga to US fans and looking forward to some new releases on the horizon.

Dark Horse’s longest-running continuous series, Oh My Goddess!, first debuted in 1994, and Horn talks about how manga was perceived sixteen years ago and how this series about love wasn’t expected to succeed in a market expecting “psychic robot tentacle assassins.”

It’s a great read, so check it out!
