Description

Pulp was a mature manga magazine circulated by Viz Media around the turn of the millennium. Riding the anime boom of the 90’s, Pulp was the first English-language source for manga geared toward adult readers, featuring stories with “grown up” themes. Some outlets view Pulp’s early pioneering efforts as key towards diversifying North American opinions on manga away from being viewed as “children’s media”. Despite this, low initial sales and a comparatively short run of just under five years has left collections of Pulp scarce and highly prized by collectors and nostalgic enthusiasts alike.
