Hiroyuki Takei, Shaman King, Jumbor, and Ultimo News Source
In the latest issue of Ultra Jump, several pieces of Jumbor news was announced in the preview for the August issue.
In the August issue of Ultra Jump, on sale on July 17th, 2010, the official start of the 「ユンボル-ＪＵＭＢＯＲ-」 series will begin. Previously there were two oneshot chapters released in Ultra Jump, but this will be the true start to the series. Hiroyuki Takei (武井宏之) will still be listed as the series creator, but returning from the second oneshot will be Hiromasa Mikami (御上裕真) as the writer. The chapter will be 63 pages long and include at least one color page. Also, Jumbor will be on the cover of Ultra Jump. Ironically, this would make Jumbor have more cover appearances in Ultra Jump than Ultimo for JumpSQ.
The other major announcement in the preview was the release of the upcoming “Jumbor Security Edition” (［ユンボル 安全版］) manga volumes. The first volume (of 2?) will be released on August 4th, 2010 in Japan. These will be a reprint of the original Jyuki Ningen Jumbor manga series with new extras (most likely the two Jumbor oneshots) and include a brand new cover art by Tenjin Hidetaka (天神英貴). He is most famous for working on artwork for the Macross series. You can see some of his artwork here. The term “Security Edition” is a pun based off of the words “kanzenban” or “Perfect Edition” which was used in the recently reprinted Shaman King Kang Zeng Bang.

[...] As reported earlier, these two reprint volumes of the Jumbor series are known as the “Security Editions.” However, on s-manga, they are listed as kanzenban, or “Complete Editions.” Shaman King also had kanzenban releases, but they were referred to as “Kang Zeng Bang.” The two Jumbor reprint volumes are referred to as “Up” and “Down,” instead of volume numbers. We may have additional information about all of these releases in upcoming Ultra Jump and JumpSQ magazine issues.
