In Stores October 2005

Los Angeles, CA (July 3, 2005) � TOKYOPOP is proud to announce the all-new Devil May Cry™ 3 manga, an inventive project based on the immensely popular and stylish Devil May Cry® videogame series from Capcom. Created by Suguro Chayamachi, author of Aza and Aka no Genyuugi, the Devil May Cry 3 manga is an action-packed adventure that pits good against evil... and brother against brother! For anyone who has ever enjoyed the game series but wanted to explore the world further, the Devil May Cry 3 manga provides an exciting opportunity to delve into the secrets of the gothic world of the Devil May Cry world.

Devil May Cry 3 tells the story of Dante, a demon slayer and bounty hunter with a demon heritage that haunts his past. He's currently unemployed -- and bored to death. Opportunity knocks in the form of a missing-child case, which his friend and manager, Enzo, offers him. But a four-million-dollar reward, an unexpected demon attack and a little girl named Alice all conspire to send Dante through the looking glass on a nightmarish adventure beyond his wildest imagination.

"Being connected with such a massively popular game franchise as Devil May Cry is a great opportunity in and of itself, but what writer/artist Suguro Chayamachi brings to the table really elevates this manga to a whole different level," said TOKYOPOP editor Bryce Coleman. "Chayamachi-san takes the established characters and themes of the game and runs with them, creating a creepy, suspenseful action yarn." Coleman continues, "One of the aspects I love about the game is that it's very horror-noir, and Chayamachi's art nails that vibe perfectly, with a very moody, monochromatic style."

TOKYOPOP's Devil May Cry 3 graphic novel will be available in bookstores nationwide in October 2005.
