[edit]Okay, so I'm editorializing with that riff about Comic Beam's readership being a bunch of otaku, art students, and manga-literate hipsters. Am I wrong?

So there's only one ongoing manga in Comic Beam, and it is on hiatus? So what are they putting out monthly? 50.232.197.90 (talk) 15:58, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

- ... that Comic Beam has published manga making fun of its low sales?

- I'll review this. ミラP@Miraclepine 21:17, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

Overall: 
Expanded from 619 B to 3683 B yesterday, now sized 3680 B. Hook verified in the question "名物編集者・壁村耐三氏から学んだマンガ編集者魂"; not much to say otherwise. @Link20XX: fix the issue and you’re good to go. ミラP@Miraclepine 01:03, 10 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Miraclepine: Thanks for the review! I added a reference to the article by Shaenon K. Garrity that was already cited, which says Astral Project was serialized in Comic Beam. One thing I wanted to ask was about this edit you made. It seems to have messed up the citation. I'm not sure if you have access to Manga: The Complete Guide, but except for the serialization dates all the information I cited from it is contained on one page in the version I own. Link20XX (talk) 01:30, 10 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Link20XX: Just to be clear, I found the pages with the serialization dates on GBooks (which was noted in the ref) since some others are cited by Natalie refs, but judging by what the Garrity ref has this might be fine by WP:BLUESKY?... IDK. (If it is, the refs can be fixed.) Oh, and the Garrity ref is fine. ミラP@Miraclepine 01:39, 10 February 2026 (UTC)
- I fixed the ref issue. Also, the Garrity source says it was published in Comic Beam and the Multiversity Comics source says it was published between 2005 and 2007, so that should be everything for that. Link20XX (talk) 04:07, 10 February 2026 (UTC)
Thanks; now we can now close this. ミラP@Miraclepine 13:42, 10 February 2026 (UTC)
