The massive delays and closings have effected comic book fans in a big way as Diamond Distributors has been shut down. Despite that, there is still a massive amount of manga titles headed our way next month, with Viz Media announcing nearly two dozen releases alone.
One of the books is called Not Your Idol: Volume One, which is written and drawn by Aoi Makino (Ao no Tsubasa). Shojo Beat's first volume contains 176 pages and is priced at under ten dollars -- making it a pretty good deal for manga fans.
Not Your Idol: Volume One is due out May 5th, which sets it as one of the first titles to be launched next month. The story follows a pop idol who changes her gender image to hide her identity after surviving an attack.
