Imamura's adventure "Omega 6" manga is available in English for the first time!
Based on the upcoming pixel-art adventure game Omega 6 The Triangle Stars, Dark Horse Comics presents Takaya Imamura's (Star Fox, F-Zero) Omega 6, a complete story in one manga volume. This will be available for English readers in October 2025. Translated by award-winning manga translator Zack Davisson (H.P. Lovecraft's The Colour out of Space, Cat + Gamer), the 16-bit video game revolution is coming to comics!
Creator Takaya Imamura had this to say about bringing the original manga to English readers in conjunction with the game. "I sincerely hope that my manga and games can be enjoyed by people regardless of where they live, and it would make me very happy if my work delivers an exciting and thrilling experience!"
In Omega 6:
After awakening from a rejuvenating months-long stasis, androids Thunder and Kyla are ready to spring back into bounty-hunting action! With the aid of some peculiar magic fruits, the pair enter a nearly invincible berserker state. However, there's a catchonce the effect wears off, they will age rapidly and become feeble until they can return to their recovery pods. Their current target, an assassin named Petrogaze, carries an appealing $300 million credit bounty on his head. The job seems easy: the duo plans to power up, bag the bad guy, and be home before dinner. But Petrogaze is much tougher than anticipated! Forced to consume their fruits early, the bounty hunters are suddenly on a life-or-death timer. Dinner's gonna have to wait!
"The videogame version is a totally different story, confirms Junji Seki, Game Director and President of Happymeal. Set in the same world as the Omega 6 comic, full of drama-infused encounters and battles with the 100 plus unique aliens created by Imamura-san. I hope you enjoy the adventures of Thunder and Kyla in the game as well as the comic; you may even discover characters making an appearance in both!"
Omega 6 is an action-packed ride, with 216 pages (5.75" x 8.25") of retro-futuristic fun in a paperback left-to-right style. Lock in on your target when it arrives in bookstores and comic shops on October 21, 2025 for $14.99.
