The Villainess Turns the Hourglass: Ize Press Picks Up K-Comic Series
Ize Press, the imprint of Yen Press that covers Korean manhwa, has picked up The Villainess Turns the Hourglass, the popular webcomic, and will publish the English translation in print in the West.
At MCM London Comic Con last weekend, Ize Press, an imprint of Yen Press, announced the acquisition of the popular Korean webcomic, The Villainess Turns the Hourglass. They will publish an English translation with the panels rearranged into a left-right page layout. The series is just one of the latest examples of a genre popular in Korean manhwa where the main character is sent back in time with the foreknowledge of what happens in the future and sets about changing the course of history by making different choices, outsmarting their enemies before they even begin to plot against them, and generally making things better. The appeal and subtext of these stories are clear: everyone wishes they could go back in time and make different choices in their lives, and maybe things might be a lot better.
