Date: 8/3/2004
Digital Manga Publishing (DMP) and Penguin Books have signed a 3-year deal where Digital Manga will acquire and localize manga and Penguin will print and distribute the manga under its own labels.

During the first year of the agreement, DMP is to provide 8 to 10 volumes of manga to Penguin, and 10 to 15 volumes in the second and third years. There is no word yet on what titles are to be published under the agreement.

DMP previously released four titles (Trigun, Hellsing, The Ring and Berserk) in conjunction with Dark Horse Comics, before going its own way for 5 more titles (IWGP, Worst, Passion, Only the Ring Finger Knows and Desire), the first of which are due to be released this month.
