About This Magazine:
Hoping to introduce American readers to new manga titles, U.S. publisher Dark Horse Comics debuted Super Manga Blast in 2000. With popular series such as Oh! My Goddess and What's Michael as their anchor titles, Super Manga Blast spotlighted a variety of stories and styles, leaning slightly toward shonen stories. After 59 issues, Dark Horse published the final issue in March 2006.
