Where can you find the Twilight saga manga?
There is no Twilight Manga. Some people are confused on this because the Japanese versions of books have manga-style illustrations on the front covers, but those are just the cover pictures. It's unknown if Meyer will ever turn Twilight into a comic but, if she does it won't be manga, as she's American and the books are American novellas. Erm, there's a manga for Meg Cabot's Avalon High, and that's an American book.... and there's one for the Vampire Kisses series. So a manga is plausible, although not highly probable with it already being made into a movie. There are actually tons of American books that have been made into manga books. Like the Cirqe de freak series. And they are a regular book series, a manga series, and a movie series. Although they are not completely finished with the movie series yet, so it is very very possible that the twilight series will be made into a manga series. Plus if that's not enough, I read something that said Stephenie Meyer was talking with the manga companies and they were discussing the beginnings of a manga book. But this was before the Midnight Sun incident so it might not happen anymore. There is not a twilight manga. But there is a Twilight graphic novel by Young Kim. (And yes it is official) technically, where i live, you can get the manga. its sold in most bookstores. and yes it is and authorized manga.
When was manga art first started?
