On this episode of Manga Mavericks, Colton & Lum invite Jin Chan Yum Wai onto the show to discuss their comics and manga careers! Jin is not only a manga letterer, but also the editor-in-chief of Shrine Comics! A collective of exceptionally talented webcomic artists aiming to bring a fantastic anthology of manga-inspired comics that are currently celebrating their one year anniversary! Jin comes on to talk about his career journey and what he hopes to accomplish with Shrine Comics, including their own upcoming mobile app, which we got to preview before it launches sometime this year! Jin also talks about how he became the letterer for Me & Roboco, as well as his fun personal project working on his own script for a (good) live action Dragon Ball movie! Enjoy!
