Japanese publishers tend to shy away of digital distribution, so I’m finding the case of Shuto Sato‘s Say Hello to Black Jack really interesting. I was interested to see the notice at Anime News Network that he’s seeking English translators for his online comics site. Sato disclosed financial numbers for what he was making as a mangaka before switching to online distribution. I’ll be curious to read an authorized English translation of Say Hello to Black Jack when it becomes available.
Here’s some links for more information about Sato and Say Hello to Black Jack:
