In the byline of an article posted earlier today, we stated "CPM and Dark Horse Yaoi titles selling very well at Amazon." This should have read CPM and Digital Manga Publishing (DMP). In the article itself we properly identified the publisher as DMP. Although Dark Horse and DMP co-released several manga, the yaoi titles in question were released exclusively by DMP.

Broccoli Books has announced that Galaxy Angel manga vol 5 will retail for $10.99 instead of $9.99.

Volume 5 is 72 pages longer (280 vs 208) than each of the first four volumes. Broccoli had the choice of printing volume 5 on thinner paper to keep the price at $9.99, or to print it on their usual quality paper and increase the retail price. Due to questionaire answers suggesting that readers were happy with the paper quality, they decided to opt for keeping the paper and increasing the price.

Galaxy Angel Volume 5 goes on sale on February 9
