Comic Champ - History

History

Comic Champ was launched as a weekly magazine on December 5, 1991, under the name Boy Champ (소년챔프). Its purpose was to compete with Seoul Cultural Publisher's IQ Jump (아이큐점프) for the adolescent and teenage boys market. It had early success with its serialization of the Japanese basketball series Slam Dunk. In September 2002, the magazine changed its name to Comic Champ, and in 2006 changed to a biweekly publication schedule. Today it is published on the first and fifteenth days of each month.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.
    Henry James (1843–1916)

    The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Let it suffice that in the light of these two facts, namely, that the mind is One, and that nature is its correlative, history is to be read and written.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
