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:
“History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.”
—E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)
“There are two great unknown forces to-day, electricity and woman, but men can reckon much better on electricity than they can on woman.”
—Josephine K. Henry, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 15, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
