Yen Press announced two new manga acquisitions and one new Disney graphic novel this week.
Wizards of Mickey is a full-color graphic novel originally published in Italy in the magazine Topolino. Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy star in the story, in which Mickey, who is a wizard, goes in search of magical artifacts. The series has been adapted into a video game and a trading card game. Yen Press will publish Wizards of Mickey under its JY young-readers imprint; the first volume is scheduled for November 2020.
86 – Eighty-Six is the manga adaptation of a light novel series that Yen Press has been publishing since 2019; the fifth and last volume is scheduled for August. The military sci-fi series is about a fictional republic in what it claims is a bloodless war being fought by drones; in fact, the drones are piloted by young adults from a secret part of the country. An anime is in the works. The first volume of the manga is scheduled for December 2020.
