INKR, a Singapore-based startup strives to provide a wide range of translated e-comic books from varied authors. A pioneer of the digital comic industry, ComiXology circulates Marvel and DC comic books online, primarily in the English language. In addition, Naver Webtoon elevated mahwas (Korean comic books) to reach more readers and catch up to Japanese manga readership. Manhuas (Chinese comic books) are also scaling and finding their ways to non-Chinese readers. In Southeast Asia, locals have increasingly become immersed in the comic book and anime industry, so much so that huge comic book platforms like Kakao and Naver battle to have a share of the growing market.
