I have just learned about a new magazine format publication called GEN which has somehow got me quite excited (well as excited as one can get first thing in the morning)!! It is a monthly publication featuring original material created by Japanese underground artists, while primarily a digital magazine there will be printed versions available for a limited time.

The printed edition can be purchased through Amazon.com in the US. As I'm currently in the UK I'll be trying to get my copy through Amazon.co.uk.

Manga Maniac Cafe have interviewed Robert McGuire, Editor in Chief GEN and you can find more information on the GEN website as well as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Youtube.
