Onihime VS ch12

And a translation has been posted for Onihime VS ch12!!

Since this was one of my practice material chapters, I already have a cleaned version of it.

So later this week I might typeset it for the hell of it.

Update: Nevermind.  imangascans has already picked it up and did it.  Though hopefully this project will be continued.

Nick Simmons doing VERY bad things

I'm not sure how many people know of this yet.....but there is a MAJOR plagiarization incident going on involving a certain comic here in the US.

The comic series "Incarnate" by Nick Simmons (Gene Simmon's son) is published by "Radical Comics".  It has been discovered that, from what I've seen, nearly everything in it is taken from other series.  Bleach was apparently used a lot.

There are articles now available showing actual side by side pictures of some of these.  The images are almost EXACTLY identical.  This has apparently been known somewhat for awhile with no action taken by Radical.

But it looks like now enough people have banded together to bitch about it that Radical comics is FINALLY taking this seriously.  They are officially halting publishing until it's resolved.  They are also trying to contact the other publishers of the series the material has been taken from (stolen is a better term).

I hope Radical Comics truly understands what their lack of action until now will cause them.  People will lose trust in them.

Also they can face serious charges and such (especially since they have been told about this before but simply blew it off).

Seems to me this series, "Incarnate", isn't likely to stay around.  After this crap, I don't think ANY company would be stupid enough to actually support it.  And there was so little ORIGINAL stuff in it that you can't really make anything out of it.

I have one thing left to say about this.

NICK SIMMONS.....YOU SUCK YOU JACKASS

Oh and here's one of the articles.

Hajimete no Aku ch52 being started

Okay a raw for Hajimete no Aku ch52 has been uploaded to RAW Paradise.  The translation has also been finished.

There is however one problem.

THE ONLY RAW FILE I HAVE COME ACROSS IS HORRIBLE!!  THE QUALITY SUCKS BIG TIME!!

If anyone finds it in an actually "not sucking horribly" quality PLEASE TELL ME!

I'll start working with what I have.  But I really can't expect too much from this.  I would really prefer a better starting point for use.....photoshop can only do so much.  And starting with good quality usually gives better end results.

Update:
Good one available:  THANK YOU FINESTELA!!!  YOU ARE A LIFESAVER!!!  WONDERFUL JOB AS ALWAYS!!!

Black Lagoon is back

The manga series "Black Lagoon" is one of my favorites.  Volume 9 ended the last story arc and then it went into hiatus.

It's back.  The RAW for ch77 has been posted.  I hope this series returns to scanlation status soon.  I love this series.
