The Manta Webcomics Library Gets Even Bigger

Manta, known for its successful romantasy titles such as Under the Oak Tree, I've Become a True Villainess, and Betrayal of Dignity will add over 300 webcomic titles from now through early next year, further enriching Manta's extensive library.

"With our expanding content library, we aim to offer our readers even more variety and quality in webcomic storytelling," said Travis Kim, CEO of Manta. "The GEM model has provided us the opportunity to significantly expand our library, offering a broader array of content to cater to diverse tastes. The GEM system creates new monetization opportunities for our talented creators, enabling them to earn more from their work and continue crafting compelling stories. Our goal is to support both our readers and creators by providing an unparalleled webcomic experience."

The GEM Model Upgrade Designed to Pay Creators

The GEM model, Manta's currency system, allows users to access an even greater variety and quality of titles.
