“It’s a non-stop full of action title full of monsters and zombies! Very high grade stuff!”
Stone Collector: Pieces of curse fall from the sky as if to mock the cruelty and evil of humanity. These stones create wretched beasts and the blood of these beasts turn human flesh into the undead. There is only one thing that can destroy these hellish fiends—Jade Stone. This is the story of a Stone Collector. One who wields Jade forged blades. A man whose family was murdered by these evil abominations and he has now vowed to rid the world of the foul presence. —Author: Kevin Han —Artist: Zom-J
This year GEN will also release a complete list of graphic novels. All new graphic novels with all new content along with the return of old stories with new artwork and new chapters! GEN Manga will release new content every month, this time, in the form of one-shot graphic novels, otherwise known in Japan as tankobon!
The second release 2013 in GEN Manga’s publishing schedule is the indie fan favorite Sorako!
The art of Sorako is fluid, quick, imprecise. Lines aren’t perfectly straight nor details entirely accurate, but the rough drafting style gives the frames energy and character, enhancing the impression that the artist’s goal is to tell Sorako’s story, blemishes and all. —AnimeNation
Sorako lives an ordinary life. And this is an ordinary story. She has friends and family, loves her dog, thinks about life, and occasionally looks for work (kinda). These are the adventures into a typical girl’s life.
—Author & Artist: Takayuki Fujimura
GEN Manga will also release its first Kickstarter to help promote print here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1450575711/sorako-a-manga-about-nothing?ref=live

Single page viewing will now make it easier for fans to read their favorite manga on their favorite reading devices.
GEN is the leading edge of original Japanese manga innovation. But will American manga fans prove their support? In a recent news release it appears even major power houses like Shogakukan are taking notice with the (3 months too late for GEN’s debut) news release of dual language publication plans. Also, Jmanga’s move for online publication of new titles made news a couple months after GEN’s debut. Can underdogs without large corporate backing compete even when they are ahead of the thinking curve? Fans can show their support for innovative work at the GEN manga booth at one of the biggest comic and anime festivals in America, the NY Comic Con. GEN will be at the New York Comic Con, booth 2030.
