AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Live-Action Adaptations: BBC Studios Kids & Family, Wheel in Motion and Kadokawa are developing a live-action “Kiki’s Delivery Service” series—10 half-hour episodes drawn mainly from the first volume of Eiko Kadono’s six-book run, with Irena Brignull attached; it’s the property’s first live-action TV treatment and marks the 40th anniversary. Comics-to-Screen: Prime Video is rolling out “Spider-Noir,” an eight-episode live-action drama based on Marvel’s “Spider-Man Noir,” starring Nicolas Cage and blending noir and comic-book mythology. Publishing Trade Pressure: Edinburgh International Book Festival director Jenny Niven warns soaring accommodation costs could price out smaller publishers, with author housing costs rising to £210,000 for the event. Rights, Censorship & Books: Renowned comics journalist Joe Sacco’s “The Once and Future Riot” about India’s 2013 riots is blocked from sale in India after a publisher move. Industry Moves: Japan’s Harlequin K.K. ends its monthly “Harlequin Original” magazine with the July issue, shifting focus to the Harlequin Comic label. International Spotlight: Taiwan’s TAICCA pavilion returns to the Seoul International Book Fair (June 24–28) with 160 titles from 55 publishers, building on last year’s guest-of-honor momentum. Awards & New Voices: Singapore author Joyce Chng’s “Wolf’s Path” is shortlisted for the British Fantasy Awards’ Best Collection category.
