CBNAH Delves Into the Noodles of Paulsen and Butcher of UDON Ent...
Within the
last decade UDON Entertainment has been making of a name for
themselves. Releasing high quality comics, manga, prints, posters and
art books. The Canadian studio has built a strong fan base and a
force in publishing. CBNAH caught up with Ash Paulsen, Associate
Editor and Chris Butcher, Marketing Director of UDON to chat about
SDCC, UDON on ComiXology, Bravoman and more.
CBNAH: How
was SDCC this year for UDON? What was the best selling item at the
UDON booth?
ASH PAULSEN:
This year was an excellent one for UDON at SDCC! Our best-selling
item was definitely our core convention debut book for this year, the
holofoil hardcover edition of Mega Man 25 (hereinafter "MM25").
We were selling through our stock of MM25 so quickly within the first
hour or so of Preview Night that we had to hold some copies back for
Thursday through Sunday, just to ensure that other attendees would
have a crack at them! But even those sold within the first ten
minutes of the exhibit hall opening each morning, with hardcore Mega
Man fans lining up outside our booth for the chance to bring home
their own hardcover edition of MM25.
CHRIS
BUTCHER: MM25 was definitely our fastest seller, but our best-seller
was actually Street Fighter Origins: Akuma, the long-awaited graphic
novel by Chris Sarracini and Joe Ng! We sent a few more copies of it
to Comic-Con than MM25 because it weighed less (rush-shipping books
from overseas is expensive!), and we sold every one! Luckily we’ll
be doing online sales at UDONSTORE.com beginning August 1st, for
folks who couldn’t make it to Comic-Con to pick up our show
exclusives.
CBNAH:
Speaking of San Diego Comic Con, big news with several UDON titles
that will be available on ComiXology. How did the process come about?
CHRIS
BUTCHER: Honestly, ComiXology approached us about working together,
and since our fans had been asking us to put our comics on that
service for a while now, we accepted their lovely invitation. We’re
excited to bring our complete line of Street Fighter comics and
graphic novels to ComiXology, and we’ve been thrilled with how
clean and crisp the art looks! We’re also looking forward to
introducing fans to our original projects like Makeshift Miracle and
Random Veus, and a selection of our manga and artbook titles too!
CBNAH: Coming
out later this year will be Bravoman. Can you tell us what is
Bravoman?
ASH PAULSEN:
We're very excited to be working with ShiftyLook to release the first
volume of Bravoman later this year! Bravoman is a 25-year-old video
game that originally came out for the Turbo-Grafx 16 console. It's a
side-scrolling platfomer/action game that never really became that
well-known, but over the past year and a half or so, ShiftyLook -- a
division of video game publisher Namco Bandai that specializes in
revitalizing old and current Namco video game IPs and transforming
them into new mixed media properties -- has brought Bravoman back
stronger than ever with a popular web comic, web cartoon, and --
coming in August -- a new video game for mobile platforms.
UDON's
upcoming Bravoman Vol. 1 book focuses on the web comic, collecting
its first year of storylines as well as providing lots of bonuses for
fans in the form of tribute art, comments from the web comic's
creators, and more!
CBNAH: A few
years ago UDON release the Silent Mobius. Any chance of seeing UDON
picking up any original manga titles in the far future?
CHRIS
BUTCHER: The manga market is tough right now… We’ve actually
inquired after a few original properties over the past 12 months,
but unfortunately the rights were snapped up by other publishers
quickly! We’re always looking at all manner of new licensing and
translation opportunities, and expanding our art book line with
manga- and anime-related releases was a big move for us this past
year! I think it’s safe to say you’ll see more manga releases
from us in 2014.
CBNAH: This
year and in 2014, we'll see more artbooks coming out from UDON. What
books people should keep an eye on?
ASH PAULSEN:
We've got tons of art books coming out over the next year that we
know fans and newcomers will love - way more than I have room to talk
about here!
On the Capcom
front, we're very pleased that we've been able to answer one of our
plans' loudest pleas with the localization of Breath of Fire Official
Complete Works, which collects all the gorgeous artwork and character
designs from all five games in Capcom's classic Breath of Fire RPG
series. We're also showing fans of Falcom RPGs lots of love with a
localization of Ys: The Art Book and not one, but two art books based
on The Legend of Heroes series!
Of course,
we're also continuing our line of beloved Street Fighter graphic
novels with Super Street Fighter Vol. 2, as well as keeping our
legacy Street Fighter stories alive in a bigger and more beautiful
format than ever before with Street Fighter Classic Vol. 2 and the
new hardcover edition of Street Fighter IV: Wages of Sin, which
includes eight bonus stories and a new, six-page Juri story.
CHRIS
BUTCHER: For the rest of 2013 and 2014, in addition to the titles
we’ve mentioned, P4: Arena, the next book in our Persona series, is
going to blow people away. I’m also excited about our Hyperdimenson
Neptunia + Mk2 book, because the anime is airing now in Japan to
absolute rave reviews.
Oh, and
we’re happy to say that the long-delayed Eyes of Bayonetta art
book, probably our most-inquired-after project of all time, will make
its way to store shelves sometime in the next little while. I think
that one is going to make a LOT of people very happy!
CBNAH: Are
there any titles or art books that have floated under the radar that
people should check out?
ASH PAULSEN:
A personal favorite of a few of us here at UDON that has flown under
the radar a bit more than we'd like is Midori Foo's Book of Pictures,
which is just brimming with ridiculously gorgeous artwork, costume
designs, and more. The barrier of entry may be a little higher for
some because the art within is not based on an existing, well-known
IP, but don't let that deter you: this book is not to be missed and
is one of the most gorgeous, value-packed art books we've ever
localized!
CHRIS
BUTCHER: Oh I love the Midori Foo collection, it really is stunning.
The other two books that I think hardcore art book fans might not
know about are Shining Force Feather: Design Works and Atelier:
Artworks of Arland. Both of these feature the artworks of (arguably)
the most popular character designers in Japan, with Noizi Ito and
‘pako’ on SFF and Mel Kishida on Atelier. They’re beautiful
books, with special ink treatments, paper treatments, the whole nine
yards. Gorgeous stuff.
CBNAH: UDON
has been known to have a great working relationship with CAPCOM.
What's it like to work with CAPCOM?
ASH PAULSEN:
Capcom has been and is amazing to work with, and to have continuing
access to one of video gaming's deepest, most beloved well of
characters, worlds, and franchises is something we are always
thankful for. It can be said that our initial work with Capcom on
Street Fighter is what really propelled us into the public eye to
begin with, so even though we work with properties besides Capcom
ones now, our relationship with them continues to be one of our most
beneficial and rewarding professional partnerships. We're very
pleased to have been able to work so closely with Capcom and so many
of their flagship games and franchises such as Street Fighter, Mega
Man, Okami, Ace Attorney, and Darkstalkers, and we look forward to
our continuing relationship with Capcom benefiting fans over the next
year with our upcoming Breath of Fire, Devil May Cry, Dragon's Dogma,
and Asura's Wrath art books!
CHRIS
BUTCHER: I’m actually the newest hire at the company and had never
worked with licensors before, and had been warned by colleagues about
how difficult working on licensed properties can be…! But working
with Capcom has been great, there are a lot of passionate people
there that are just as excited to be working with us as we are with
them. I feel like we’re pretty lucky to have such a great
relationship.
CBNAH: Is
there anything you would like to say the fans who supported UDON and
its products throughout the years?
ASH PAULSEN:
This may sound trite, but it's so true: our fans mean everything to
us. It's you, the fans, who allow us to continue to prosper and
localize incredible Japanese and Korean art books that would
otherwise never see the light of day in the West, and we are so
thankful to each and every one of you, whether you are specifically
UDON fans, Capcom fans, Street Fighter fans, or just fans of
excellent art in general. It's precisely because we love our fans so
much that we directly listen to what you want and fulfill those
requests as much as possible -- after all, Breath of Fire Official
Complete Works and Ys: The Art Book are happening now because you,
our passionate fans, have been asking us to localize them! With that
in mind, if there are other art books you'd like to see us localize
in the future, be sure to let us know on our Facebook page or on
Twitter! The entire UDON crew is always on the lookout for new
projects to take on, and we at UDON are all about pleasing the fans
who have helped us become successful.
Even More Fantasia Film Festival Reviews..!
Fantasia Film Festival: The Battery Review by Oz & Panagiotis Drakopoulos
Oz’s
Take: THE BATTERY. WHO IS THE BATTERY? MICKEY
(Actor/Producer Adam Cronheim)? BEN (Director/Writer/Producer/Actor
Jeremy Gardner)? ME? YOU? Fuck zombie movies, fuck them all compared
to this low budget masterpiece. I’ve seen it all “being an old
man,” but this one, this one sparked my imagination.
I
talked with the guys from the film and I can't say that I didn't
leave impressed. Aggressive, energetic, projective, intense,
personal, and ambitious, these fellas had all the proper
dealing/recipe to make a fuck you soup. Fuck you standing for
imagination, representation and expression, and not genital exercise.
A beautiful zombie flick yet light on the zombies. The human person
was the main star here. You are like this, I am like this but what WE
are at the end of the world where our only neighbours/contact to
walking flesh is zombies? Oh but don't say the z word, Mickey has
issues dealing with this. Why? Cuz he has issues of letting go,
letting go of yesterday, letting go of sanity, letting go of comfort
and security. This new world isn't here to welcome you or hug you or
keep you warm, this world is here to strip you bear boned. This world
is here to fucking measure your mettle and what you are willing to do
to survive. Ben is your guide to this reality and Mickey is a false
hope that wants you to stick to your yesterday. A journey that tests
both men to their limits, it was a pleasure and an honour being
included on the ride.
Panagiotis’
Take: The Battery is
one of those films that will leave you wanting more. Wanting you to
feel uneasy and asking questions about humanity. The premise of the
film follows two former baseball players Ben (Jeremy Gardner) and
Mickey (Adam Cronheim) trying to survive the zombie apocalypse.
Tension mounts between the two. Ben feels at easy living a nomadic
and undomesticated life. While Mickey is unable to cope with his
current living conditions and wants a static lifestyle, a bed, a
woman, shelter, and to be social with human life (outside of Ben).
The constant fighting between them leads to many twists and turn, and
an horrifying ending. The Battery could
easily take place in the same universe as The
Walking Dead television series or any of
George A. Romero zombie film. With a budget about $6000, this film
does more with less. It’s all the story and the human drama of two
people trying to survive in a world run by zombies. The
Battery is a film that everyone should check
out and experience for themselves. A true hidden gem and a game
changer to the horror genre.
Fantasia Film Festival: DOOMSDAYS Review by Panagiotis Drakopoulos
DOOMSDAYS
is one of the most unique films I’ve ever
seen. It’s a comedy about preparing for the apocalypse. The story
is about two friends Dirty Fred (Justin Rice) and Bruno (Leo
Fitzpatrick) who are uncertain about the future due to the declining
petroleum resources will lead to the collapse of the modern world.
Instead of waiting for the end, both men decide to live life as a
couple of vagabonds. Breaking into vacant homes and staying there
until they run out of supplies or when the home owners return. This
becomes a daily routine until they meet with up a runaway teenage
named Jaidon (Brian Charles Johnson) and a woman at a party named
Reyna (Laura Campbell) join the duo on their travels. This leads into
huge shift within the group. DOOMSDAYS is
great film with an awesome cast and a very original concept. The
principal cast has a special bond between them, to a point where
these fictional characters feel like real people. This from a strong
script and direction from writer/director Eddie Mullins. I enjoy
watching the film and planning on watching it again at the festival.
I highly recommend this film and look forward for Mr. Mullins next
project.
Fantasia Film Festival: Rurouni Kenshin Review by Panagiotis Drakopoulos
Rurouni Kenshin is
based on the popular manga(comic) of the same name, created by
Nobuhiro Watsuki, which appeared in Weekly
Shonen Jump back in the mid 90s. The two plus
hour film was able to cover the first major story arc of the comic.
With some minor changes to the original source material. The film
follows a wanderer named Himura Kenshin (Takeru Satoh), who wants to
spend his days in peace. But a decade prior, he was a former assassin
with a bloody past known as “Hitokiri Battosai.” While on his
journey he meets the lovely and compassionate
Kamiya Kaoru (Emi Takei) the owner of her late
father’s dojo. After this faithful encounter between the two,
Kenshin must wield his sword again to take down an evil businessman
named Takeda Kenryu (Teruyuki Kagawa). Rurouni
Kenshin is the perfect film for both a male
and female audience. Insane and over the top action scenes mix with
romance and a sprinkle of comedy all around. There are some issues I
do have with the film. Some of the comedy bits during the most
dramatic scenes in the film felt in weird and out of place, and
trying to compress a long a comic story into a 135 minute film felt
overwhelming. Yet, this is still a great film that got a loud
applause from the audience when the credits rolled on screen. If
Rurouni Kenshin is
playing at your local cinema or film festival I highly recommend for
you to watch this film.

Oz-Tastic Fantasia Film Festival Reviews..!
Fantasia
Film Festival: Magic Magic Review by Oz
The previews for this film
kept showing Michael Cera in a dark and sinister role but after
viewing, it was the same old with him. Awkward, funny, if slightly
more vulgar and Spanish speaking then usual, still he's a saving
grace. The movie itself follows a vacationing American girl in South
America, reconnecting with her cousin Sarah (Emily Browning). Sarah
welcomes Alicia (Juno Temple) to her new life and friends, but she
quickly feels secluded and alone. After unfinished "school"
business (in actuality a visit to the hospital attending to an
abortion) keeps Sarah from joining her for the first few days in
their rustic, middle of the woods holiday home, things spiral
downwards mentally for Alicia. The atmospheric soundtrack's goal was
to keep you uneasy, but it just gave me a headache. The shocking
ending was really not what I was expecting but I still left
disappointed. Magic Magic's message maintained to be pretty muddled
and in the end, I personally just felt like Alicia's character was
very whiny and unsinkable. Still even with the brain-pain, it does
leave you with a feeling of discomfort, a feeling of being haunted
and unnerved.
Fantasia
Film Festival: Imaginaerum Review by Oz
It's a story about a man
on his death bed. Surrounded by "loved ones" his own mind
is reduced to that of his adolescent self and with the spectre of
death disguised as a happy go lucky snowman, the adventure begins.
Great visuals all around and the usage of power metal music as a
medium to communicate deceit and betrayal in the mind's eye is a
brilliant stroke for a movie, but still, it quickly leaves me
wanting. It's an interesting look at the old "your entire life
flashing before your eyes" but I feel like the message could
have been communicated in a lot less time. Overall Imaginaerum
is still an original piece of cinema but
nothing I would really watch twice.
Fantasia
Film Festival: Horror Stories Review by Oz
A South Korean horror
anthology featuring 4 short stories with the purpose of soothing a
maniac serial killer (Yoo Yeon-seok) into a much needed sleep. Ji-won
(Kim Ji-won) is the kidnapped high school student narrating these
tales of blood chilling malice. Survival instincts kicked up to 11,
she comes up with some pretty intense and gory fables, each
concluding in the most horrific manner possible. Lots of fun special
effects and ghastly demises, still it maintains its share of
regurgitated tropes.
Almost every installment has a dream sequence and other repetitive devices. And the formula
becomes predictable. My favourite has to be DON'T ANSWER THE DOOR; it
maintained a creepy vibe through out as the young brother and sister
duo are terrorized in their upstart apartment. My second preferred
anecdote is SECRET RECIPE because who doesn't love cannibalism? Set
on a Cindarella-esque backdrop, it displays how far the power of envy
and jealousy can go.
The main theme I noticed
in all the stories was the power of cruelty, especially one displayed
by men. It also maintains a subtle sense of humour through out.
HORROR STORIES is engaging and manages to stay varied segment to
segment, I look forward to more work from Jung Bum-Shik and co.

Man Oh Man-ga..! CBNAH Interview with Digital Manga Publishing...
Along
the way, they co-published “Trigun”
and ”Hellsing”
with Dark Horse
Comics, and funded a couple of Osamu Tezuka (The God of Manga) titles
on Kickstarter. Recently, at Anime Expo in the Digital Manga
Publishing panel, it was announced that DMP had formed a partnership
with Tezuka Production to release all of Osamu Tezuka’s
works digitally across the world.
CBNAH did an
interview with Yoko Tanigaki, VP Sales & Distribution of DMP to
talk about Anime Expo, internal reaction to the Tezuka deal, using
Kickstarter and more.
CBNAH:
First off, how was Anime Expo this year and the feedback you got from
visitors of the industry panels to the Akadot Retail and eManga
booth?
Yoko
Tanigaki: AX2013
was great. It went very well. We received lots of positive
feedbacks- People were excited to see that we offered game, (
https://www.emanga.com/search?categoryid=4 ) on emanga.com. Lots of
people came to check it out at our booth. Akadot performed very well
with our yaoi books too. Overall, it was a very good show; it was a
lot of work but it all paid off in the end.
CBNAH: The
big announcement from Anime Expo is that DMP will be working with
Tezuka Production to release all of Osamu Tezuka's works digitally
worldwide. What was the internal reaction from the company when the
deal was signed by both parties? Any chance of this material
appearing on Comixology?
YT:
Yes. It was a big,
big- HUUUGE announcement for us. I can’t
believe we get to work with Tezuka pro’s
entire library of manga. We are going worldwide with this. Tezuka’s
been looking for a way to go international for a long time. And
partnering up with Digital Manga was the solution. This is “it.”
It took months and months of skype meetings to get this far. We are
both extremely happy with the outcome and we are looking forward to
working with them. Chance of this appearing on Comixology –
yes. I think so.
CBNAH: DMP
is one of the few establish companies (along with Top Cow
Productions) to find great success in funding projects via
Kickstarter. There's a lot of great benefits using Kickstarter, but
what are certain challenges comes with using Kickstarter? Will we see
non-Tezuka projects on Kickstarter in the far future?
Both
Unico and Barbara were successful funded on kickstarter, and Barbara
got an Eisner nomination for Best U.S. Edition of International
Material—Asia
award.
YT:
One single, MOST
difficult thing dealing with Kickstarter is- explaining WHAT
KICKSTARTER is to the Japanese publisher. They’ve
never heard of Kickstarter before…
and we had to explain to them, what it is. “What
is Kickstarter? How does it work? “
was the most difficult thing. We are essentially going to Tezuka
Pro and say “We
want to license this…
but we aren’t
sure if we want to license…”
because we have to wait until the project’s
been funded. As for non-Tezuka projects on Kickstarer in the future?
Sure. We thought about it.
CBNAH:
The manga adaptation of “Vampire
Hunter D”
will be ending next fall with volume 8 due to health concerns for
Saiko Takaki. How's she doing?
YT:
“Vampire
Hunter D”
series has been our flagship series for us and I’m
(personally) sad to see it end. And it’s
been a great run and we are very honored to have been able to work
with Takaki sensei. She is doing just fine and everything is on
schedule for our final volume in the fall of 2014.
CBNAH:
We'll finally see the final volume of “Ai
no Kusabi”
be release later on this fall. The first volume came out way back in
2007, its been a long journey and how does it feel to see this title
wrapping up? Your imprint lines June and 801 Media focuses on Yaoi
titles and it's been huge success for the company. Are there any
titles that have floated under the radar that readers should check
out?
YT:
I know lots of
people were waiting on this series –
and I’m
glad to got them licensed. Titles that readers should check out ..?
Oh my gosh –
YESSS. How much time do you have..???
My suggested
titles are:

FLUTTER (furatta フラッター
9781569702741)
Summary from the Akadot

street nearly every day. So when the two men are paired up for a
high-pressure project, he can’t believe his good luck! But what

to be top dog? It's seme versus seme - and much more than pride's on
the line! http://www.akadot.com/same-difference-yaoi-gn-p-40250.html
CBNAH: A few years ago,
Project-H was created for publishing Hentai, Ecchi and Ero books.
Since its launch, has Project-H seen the same amount of success as
the Yaoi imprint lines? What Project-H titles people should check
out?
YT: I’d
say the success of Project-H was greater than our yaoi imprint. They
are very well received and it’s doing so well for us. Fan support
has been great and we couldn’t have asked for more.
If you want to check out
some of Project-H books, try:
VELVET KISS ( berubetto
kisu ベルベット・キス①
9781934129562)
Summary
for volume one from the Project-H website: Shin’s spirits were
soaring after winning the lottery and landing a contract with a
famous firm in the same day—not bad for a normally luckless office
worker. He quickly plummets back down to earth, however, upon
discovering that he’s been saddled with an immense amount of debt.
There is, however, one way he can keep his creditors at bay: become
“friends” with an enigmatic and alluring girl named Kanoko. The
task sounds simple enough at first, but leaves him eating his own
words as Kanoko’s selfish demands start to take their toll on him
both mentally and physically. Will Shin ever be able to pay his debt
off, or will the lust, luxury, and mystery simply overwhelm him??
MY CUTE CROSSDRESSER

means he now has to crossdress to keep his real identity a secret!
Will Yuuki pull it off... or will he be pulled to pieces by a cute,
curious classmate?
You’ll love these.
CBNAH: DMP has been
known to have great working relationships with Japanese publishing
companies like Shinshokan and Tezuka Production. What's it like to
work with these large companies on a daily basis and have the access
to a large amount of titles to publish in print or in digital format?
YT: Yes.
We’ve been blessed to be able to work with such a great publishers.
My best part of the job – all I can read manga! It’s books
after books… they tend to pile up very quickly and i don’t think
I’ve seen my desk top in a while. Overwhelming- yes. But I love
it. It’s never dull in this industry. There’s always something
new and keeps me busy. Of course, it’s not always bunnies and
rainbows.. there’s plenty of drama and difficult issues to deal
with. We don’t always get what we want- some creators are for print
only.. some are digital only… some don’t want to be published at
all. Some don’t want to deal with us at all.
CBNAH: Thank you, for
your time.
