An ICv2 Release.  We're now several years into the webtoon phenomenon in the U.S., and the latest trends are all revolving around the publisher experimentation with what kinds of webtoon properties to bring to print, and the reverse flow of print properties to webtoon format.  Where this experimentation takes the comics medium in all its formats has the potential to fundamentally change what comics are, how they're created, and how they're sold.  ICv2 will explore that core topic, along with news and features on other aspects of webtoons, in our 2025 Webtoon Week event.

"There's now a steady pipeline of market-tested, digital-first comics content flowing to print," ICv2 Publisher Milton Griepp said in introducing the event.  "And this creates a great opportunity to introduce new readers to the print format and build sales on proven franchises.  On the flip side, there's more and more print-first content flowing to the webtoon platforms, which can create new fans of those comics and bring them to print for their permanent collections.  ICv2 has led the way in covering the webtoon phenomenon and the opportunities for retailers, and we're going to carry on that tradition with our fourth annual Webtoon Week."

Watch ICv2 every day during Webtoon Week for more on what's happening in the fastest- growing segment of the comics and graphic novel market.
