(I probably won’t talk about it online much but I’m stoked. The office is hella diverse and cool. Also the chairs are pretty comfortable) pic.twitter.com/OvUg5Taik8

The move did not come as a surprise to anyone who was paying attention. Brothers is a passionate advocate for manga, with a lot of great writing about it on his old website, 4th Letter.
Seriously, this is a great move for both Brothers, one of the industry’s rising stars, and Viz, one of its biggest publishers in the trade market.
Glad he’s not leaving comics, though wish he’d do more writing about them!
Congrats to Brothers!
