[B]IDW Publishing and Digital Manga Publishing have teamed up to bring the first manga title, Vampire Hunter D. to the PlayStation Portable.[/B]

I'm actually quite a fan of the Vampire Hunter D. manga series and of manga in general so this is exciting news for gaming enthusiasts who dabble in the odd manga series now and then.

From a recent press release:

[INDENT] We’re very excited to release the very first digital manga on the PSP and to kick off our partnership with Digital Manga,? said Jeff Webber, Director of ePublishing at IDW. -Vampire Hunter D is an excellent story to launch the PSP manga catalogue, offering this popular series for manga fans worldwide through this new platform. We’ll be rolling out the first volume of the series as a new chapter each week for the next six weeks.

[/INDENT] The first chapter of Vampire Hunter D. released last week and was ranked at number one in the US, and number two in the UK in sales for the PSP platform. You can check out the first issue from Sony's PlayStation Store [URL=http://psp.us.playstationcomics.com/main/digital-comics/issue-detail.html?issue=Vampire+Hunter+D+Volume+1+%253A+Chapter+%25231_1433-US-EN]here [/URL]if you're interested.
