America's most prolific and fan-friendly manga publisher, TOKYOPOP, has announced an exclusive agreement with longtime mobile partner GoComics, a leader in digital entertainment. The new agreement, which strengthens the partnership between the two companies, will bring a host of new TOKYOPOP titles to mobile phones in the coming months.

TOKYOPOP will be featured in the new expanded GoComics mobile comics and manga offering – available through the mobile Internet or in the new GoComics Mobile Manga + Comics application. There will also be a stand-alone TOKYOPOP mobile Internet deck. With these new platforms, GoComics reaches every comic fan with a mobile phone, including iPhones and smart phones. Comics and manga can be read for free with ads, or they can be purchased individually using points-based subscriptions.

“Our Mobile Manga is a great user experience and satisfies discriminating creators, editors and fans alike. A major reason for this is GoComics’ commitment to quality, simplicity, and an artistic adaptation that preserves the manga pacing while converting pages into a panel-by-panel format,” said TOKYOPOP Director of New Product Development Jeremy Ross.  “We look forward to building on the success of our initial mobile manga anthology with GoComics’ “freedom of choice” offering — fans can now select their favorites from a wide catalog of titles.”

“We’ve always enjoyed a fantastic relationship with TOKYOPOP. They have been the first manga publisher to be deeply committed to mobile publishing,” said Jeff Webber, Vice President of Product Development for GoComics. “This expanded partnership is exciting for us, but it’s also great news for manga fans, as it means we’ll be launching lots of new titles. It’s a big win for fans of mobile manga!”
