The Publishers Weekly trade magazine's PW Comics Week supplement reports from Comic-Con International that Last Gasp Publishing has licensed the Fancy Gigolo Pelu manga from artist Junko Mizuno. The three-volume manga will ship in North America in the spring of 2009. Last Gasp has already licensed the Pure Trance manga from Mizuno, who is best known for her deliberately grotesque yet cute illustrations.
Update: Patrick Macias notes that his jaPress studio will be producing the English version for Last Gasp, as it had for the Eisner-nominated Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms manga and Mizuno's Pure Trance.

Cage of Eden has all of the elements of a classic survival epic – monsters, diseases, an unfriendly wilderness with no perceived escape, and our own ability as humans to lie. While it can be laid on a bit thick at times, and the fanservice or treatment of the adult female characters may be objectionable to some, Yamada's story is an engrossing one.
Nothing here shakes up the series the way parts of the last volume did, but it's consummate entertainment nonetheless: slick and effortlessly propulsive, yet still respectful of its audience and characters.
