Gutsoon! Entertainment has announced that it will launch Raijin Comics, the first weekly US manga anthology, in November 2002. Gutsoon! is the US spawn of Image-style breakaway Coamix in Japan, which launched the Japanese version of Raijin in May. The Japanese version carried a special bilingual supplement that contributed to its success in Japan. In the US, a special supplement titled Fujin will provide readers with news on anime, videogames, and Japanese pop culture.
