Comic-Con Int'l to Host Ikki Mag Editor Hideki Egami

San Diego's Ping Pong.

As Ikki's first editor-in-chief, he launched the magazine as an irregularly published spinoff of Big Comic Spirits in 2000. Due to its popularity, it became a regular magazine under the revised name Monthly Ikki in 2003. Under Egami's leadership, the magazine published such acclaimed works as serialize at least the first five of these titles on its new English-language Ikki website. Depending on reader interest, Viz plans to publish print editions of some of these titles. (Viz already publishes Sexy Voice and Robo in English.)
