Another publisher by the name Kurokawa (mostly known in the manga community) publishes All Hail Megatron and their Spotlight related issues as volumes between July 2021 and April 2022. [1] [2] This choice was held by Grégoire Hellot in commemoration of the 35th anniversary of the brand, while they thought of importing mangas centered around the licence, the fact that there are very few of them and most (if not all) of the stories are made to promote a specific toy. For them it couldn't have been a proper homage so they turned to the westerns stories in comics form, shifting the releases in their non-manga label, KuroPOP. [3] [4]
