Dark Horse Comics to release Planetes manga

Written by A. H. on 31 Mar 2015



Last night saw Anime News Network bring some good news for fans of Planetes, a series previously released in manga form by the now defunt Tokyopop.

The good news is that this manga series from Makoto Yukimura will be returning to the west courtesy of Dark Horse Comics, who will be releasing the series as a pair of omnibus volumes, the first of which will be arriving in North America on December 22nd 2015.

The series concerns a future where space is filled with debris to the extent where it requires "garbage collectors" to remove this debris lest it cause damage to shuttles, satellites and other infrastructure in space. One such "galactic bin man" is Hachimaki Hoshino, who dreams of owning his own spaceship but ultimately ends up involved in more than enough adventures thanks to his day job.
