Feature: Manga Horror

For this feature, we're soliciting pitches on trends in horror-genre manga/manhwa publishing in North America. Seeking info on new imprints and initiatives, *new* series/lead titles, and ongoing series that have notable 2026 adaptations in film and streaming. We'd like to hear from publishers as well as welcome comments from comics and book retailers, librarians or other publishing professionals who work with manga in English. The focus will be on series that were originally published in Japan, China, or Korea but may be inclusive of OEL titles. Please include initial print run and sell-through numbers as available, and contact information for sources including editors and authors/artists for interview consideration. PLEASE NOTE: We will only respond to select pitches and may not include all selected interviewees in the final article. Pub dates: Books published (print) or forthcoming between April 2026 and October 2026. Email pitches to comics@publishersweekly.com.
