ANIME MIX is a weekly anime news magazine television program that incorporates a variety of topics targeting the anime/manga industry in the US by providing the latest in unbiased anime news, live event coverage, and exclusive interviews with leading industry professionals. ANIME MIX was originally broadcasted on San Francisco local cable television for three consecutive years. ANIME MIX on TUN is eigoMANGA's first initiative to produce original television programming for national broadcast. The first set of episodes of ANIME MIX will cover anime events and various university oriented anime events." We felt that ANIME MIX was most appropriate on The U Network because the show is catered towards a college audience", claims Austin Osueke, CEO of eigoMANGA and executive producer of ANIME MIX. "The format for the original ANIME MIX was most appealing to anime fans who were apart of university anime clubs. They always gave us the most contributing comments and critiques on what they want to watch when it comes to a show about the anime industry. With the ANIME MIX, we're trying to kill two birds with one stone; reach the experienced anime fan audience and reach 'the trendsetters' of the mainstream - both of these groups are college students."

Odd Lot's Gigi Pritzker and Deborah Del Prete(HOOLIGANS/THE WEDDING PLANNER) will produce the picture along with Batfilm's Michael Uslan (BATMAN BEGINS/CATWOMAN/ CONSTANTINE). Executive Producers will be Benjamin Melniker and Steve Maier. Co-Producers will be F.J. DeSanto and Linda McDonough. Will Eisner's THE SPIRIT was created in 1940 and is the story of a masked detective - believed to be dead and operating out of a wildwood cemetery - who fights crime in Central City with his fists, cunning (a tongue-in-cheek sense of the absurd), and unbelievable tolerance for punishment. The property is considered by many fans and comic book historians to be the best creative work ever to come from the comic book industry in the last 70 years. Will Eisner is the comic-genre master storyteller, whose name graces the comic industry's most prestigious awards each year at Comicon - The Eisner Awards. Will Eisner, currently living in Florida, says, "I'm pleased to see that a film adaptation of THE SPIRIT will be produced by so experienced a creative team as Michael, Deborah and Gigi. This is an important event in the history of the comic book character, with which I have been closely identified." The intention for the adaptation is to create a handsomely crafted, stylized, character-driven tale. Additionally, it is a perfect match for the visual medium of film as Eisner's drawings were groundbreaking in incorporating cinematic camera angles and atmospheric lighting effects. Odd Lot Entertainment was represented in the deal by Laura Ivey, Sr. Vice President, Business and Legal Affairs. HERITAGE DAVE COCKRUM AUCTION RAISES CLOSE TO $25K Heritage Comics Auctions (HCA) held a benefit auction for legendary comics creator Dave Cockrum as part of their WizardWorld Chicago 2004 sale. 101 individual lots of original art, donated by some of the field's most popular creators, raised $24,581.25 for Cockrum, whose near-fatal brush with diabetes and pneumonia resulted in astronomical medical bills. "We were thrilled to be a part of this important effort," said John Petty, HCA's Director of Auctions. "This was a true grassroots effort, spearheaded by Neal Adams and Clifford Meth, who collected the art for inclusion in a tribute book published by Aardwolf Press. When they asked us to handle the auction end of the event, we jumped at the chance." "This whole effort really was a labor of love," added David Tosh, HCA Cataloger. "Dave Cockrum has been an important voice in the comics industry for many years, and it's a pleasure to have an opportunity to give something back to him." Each piece in the auction was more stunning than the one before it, so it's hard to pick out highlights. However, some of the most hotly contested pieces were the Travis Charest Nightcrawler Painting which realized 2,817.50, the Jim Lee Futurians pin-up, which brought $1,495, and the Walt Simonson X-Men/Legion of Superheroes extravaganza which fetched an impressive $2,990. Hammer price on the 101 lots totaled $21,375 and, adding on the 15% Buyer's Premium, which will also be donated to Dave, the total climbed to $24,581.25. "Personally, I was extremely pleased to see the support, both from the artists that contributed pieces and from the bidders who bought them, for such a great cause," continued Petty. "I hope that this can bring Dave a little well-deserved peace of mind, and that it helps in some small way to speed him on his road to recovery." DF TO REPRINT TRUMAN'S SCOUT Adding another classic property to their growing and impressive roster, Dynamic Forces, Inc. announced today that they had struck a deal with creator/writer/artist Timothy Truman in regards to his masterwork - Scout! Items planned for production include: Scout Collections, Posters, Lithographs, Statues, and Action Figures. Scout, originally published by Eclipse Comics between the years of 1985 through 1989, told the story of Emanuel Santana, an Apache warrior doing battle with crooked bureaucrats and mythological monsters in a post holocaust United States. The title earned several fan nominations for "Best New Series" and "Favorite Artist," and won a Spanish "Haxtur" Award. Scout proved to be popular and influential. Native American readers and educators have applauded the book for its respectful, but non- patronizing portrayal of Southwestern Indian culture and beliefs. Because various names, issue titles, plots, and themes in the book frequently paid tribute to rock and blues music and musicians, SCOUT was also a favorite comic book of rock musicians like Jerry Garcia and Carlos Santana, both of whom Truman would later have the privilege of working with. "Tim is a giant in the field, both as a creator, and as an artist," said Dynamic Forces President Nick Barrucci. "I'm extremely proud to add Scout to our list of DF Definitive Editions, and looking forward to re-presenting this powerful, landmark series - as well as new Scout merchandise -- to a whole new group of fans!" "I'm very proud of Scout," Timothy Truman said. "He was very influential on 1980s comics. He's really the sum of many influences. Along with GrimJack, Scout is probably the work that most defined my style. "Let Neo-cons beware -- Scout is back!" Truman warned. "We're extremely pleased that we can bring Scout back to a new audience," Arrogant/MGMS head Mike Gold stated. "This is a vital project, and among Tim Truman's very best work in his career. We are very pleased that we can join forces with Nick Barrucci and Dynamic Forces to help make this happen." IDW'S RETURN TO BARROW TO BE HC ED. & SC ED. IDW Publishing To Release 30 Days Of Night: Return To Barrow Collection To Be Published As A Trade Paperback As Well As Hardcover San Diego, CA (Date) The latest saga in Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith's vampire universe, 30 Days Of Night: Return To Barrow is being collected in two bookshelf-ready editions: a trade paperback and a hardcover version. 30 Days Of Night was one of the undisputed success stories of modern comics, spawning a best-selling trade paperback, a major motion picture deal and the attention of fans longing for an innovative tale of modern terror. Wizard Magazine named 30 Days Of Night its Breakout Event of the Year in 2003. Now the creators of that book, Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith, revisit Barrow, Alaska, the town where it all began. As the long night creeps once more over the tundra, some things may have changed, but the horror remains. "After Dark Days moved the action to Los Angeles, fans of 30 Days of Night wondered what shape Barrow was in after the initial vampire attacks," said Chris Ryall, IDW's editor-in-chief. "Well, in Return to Barrow, they get their answer, and I don't think it was what anyone expected." Both the trade paperback and hardcover editions collect all six issues of the spine-tingling series under a suitably moody Ben Templesmith cover.

The book was acquired by Bob Weil, executive editor at W. W. Norton, who called it a "major deal." Weil observes, "the graphic novel and the graphic history are becoming essential components of a well-balanced list." Weil says he anticipated "great interest" in the work from the domestic, foreign and college markets. Both Weil and Hanson declined--at the insistence of Crumb, NewsLine was told--to reveal the book's subject. But industry sources say the book will be a "literal" interpretation of Genesis, the first book of the Bible. Norton is also publishing Will Eisner's upcoming book on the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. The Crumb deal represents the latest in a surge of cartoonists signing book deals with "traditional" book publishers.
