Indie Comics Spotlight #17 Sailor Moon

This week Tony is joined by Shaina Lucas of DC Comics News. Please read her work and give her a follow. You can also check out her Cos Play personality Miss Scarlet Con. Shaina has appeared on the DC Comics News Podcast Network’s Harley Quinn Cast. Listen for the promo.

"Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon" refers to the original manga release of Sailor Moon, which was written and illustrated by Naoko Takeuchi and published in Kodansha's Nakayoshi magazine between 1992 and 1997. This first edition, known as "Tankoubon," consisted of 18 volumes covering 52 acts, with volume 11 containing short stories that did not follow the main storyline. Starting from 2003, the series was re-released in Japan in a new format known as the "Renewal Edition" or "Shinsouban" (新装版; lit. "newly bound edition"); in this new edition, slight corrections were made to dialog and art. The new edition consisted of 12 volumes (each with new cover art) covering 60 acts, as well as two additional volumes separating the short stories from the main storyline.

An English translated version was produced by TokyoPop soon after the first Japanese edition. Additionally, the new re-release of the English translated version has been published by Kodansha Comics USA in 14 Volumes, starting September 13, 2011, under the new title, "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon".
