Treading new ground: The Adventures of Johnny Bunko

A business manga?

It's not so unusual in Japan, but a first for an American publisher.

The book hits the bookstore shelves on Monday. The promotional website, JohnnyBunko.com, goes live on Monday too.

You can order the book from Amazon.com. I'll be doing that myself.

Being from a regular book publisher, Penguin Books, rather than a comics publisher, I suspect that this book will not be in many, if any, comic shops. If you do find it in a comic shop, please let me know.

Are there any comic book stores in Rockland, ME?

Thanks.

To my knowledge, absolutely none. The closest ones I know of are in Augusta, Brunswick, and Bangor.

I buy my new comics through Discount Comic Book Service (DCBService.com).
