No Dargaud , no Rebellion , no Scholastic , no DFC , no Blank Slate , Self Made Hero , not even a Soaring Penguin presence . As a termination there are also not a portion of the MG and YA lifelike novels that have been booming in sales , while manga fundamentally gets a corner of Diamond UK . But in their absence , opportunity . Glenat is outdo up all the business that Dargaud would have had , Tony Bennett from Knockabout Comis steps in where Rebellion are n’t , and just as much business organisation seems to be done , with just as many players . mayhap those who might not have had the prospect at previous book fairs . And Dirk Wood from Image Comics trump up all manner of bring out spate for all the Creator he represents . Indonesia is a featured country for LBF this class , and they have plenty of manga . – if you may determine it ( and I did . )
