What happens when Stan Lee teams up with Japan’s finest? 

Source: www.animenewsnetwork.com

The Japanese publisher Shueisha has announced that Stan Lee, the co-creator of America’s Spider-Man and X-Men from Marvel Comics, and Hiroyuki Takei, the creator of Shaman King, will create a new project together to launch the Jump SQ.II (Jump Square Second) spinoff manga magazine on April 18. The announcement of the as-yet-unnamed project was made in the April issue of Jump Square magazine, which was released on March 4 in Japan.

The Spider-Man and X-Men comics have been adapted into Japanese manga by Ryoichi Ikegami (Crying Freeman, Mai the Psychic Girl, Sanctuary) and several Shogakukan artists, respectively. C.B. Cebulski brought Kia Asamiya (Silent Möbius, Dark Angel), Takehiko Ito (Outlaw Star), Katsuya Terada (Zenbu, Blood: The Last vampire), and others to various Marvel Comics titles after he became an editor there. Del Rey is collaborating with Marvel to create an X-Men shōjo title with writers Raina Telgemeier and Dave Roman and Indonesia-based artist Anzu, as well as a Wolverine title with writer Anthony Johnston and an unnamed artist. (Marvel created a Mangaverse line of comics with mostly American and Canadian creators in 2001.) Viz Media publishes Shaman King in North America. Shueisha announced earlier this year that Takei will draw a new ending for Shaman King for its deluxe Kang Zeng Bang (Kanzen-Ban) edition.

Plaird’s Thoughts: Wow, impressive! The famous Stan Lee is teaming up with one of Plaird’s favorite creators for an exciting new endeavor! You can be sure that Plaird will keep everyone updated as she anticipates more information on this!

Wow Stan the man Lee and japans finest humm? I might have to start picking up Manga. The only problem i see here is, how strong the titles actually going to be i mean Stan Lee never struck me as the deep story modern age writer, he is more four panel type with a little bit of drama thrown in, is it really the type the translate well into Manga?  Or is it something that is going to be lost in Japanese art form translation?

I freaked and left her there, only to spend the rest of the night looking for the “guy” that attacked the girl I was dating.  We never found that guy, but not only did I get to laughy ass off I got to play the hero in the end...and really isn’t that all a sidekick truly wants.
