MDb news since 1996.
After several years of collecting rare manga from Japan, the Metroid Database is happy to announce that we have finally acquired every last chapter of Samus & Joey. All pages of the manga have been scanned in and are ready for processing, and the entirety of it has also been translated. That's a total of about 500 pages left (including close to 200 pages from Samus & Joey Volume 3 and 360 pages of Metroid: Extreme, the spinoff series). If you didn't know we had this and other manga on the site, you can check them all out here.
However, cleaning and typesetting the manga takes up a lot of time. Multiply that by 500 pages and well...honestly, the MDb staff doesn't have the free time anymore to work on these. So although the text has been translated in English, there's no easy way of sharing all these pages with you in a form that's pleasing to read.
For that reason, we are asking for volunteers to help clean and typeset the manga. If you're interested, check out our official thread on the forum (membership not required).
We hope you will consider helping out so we can share this rare treasure trove with Metroid fans everywhere! Let's get the word out to make this a reality!
Until next time...
