Take a gander at manga history with One Piece Color Walk Compendium: East Blue to Skypiea next month

Earlier last week, VIZ Media announced that it will release the art book One Piece Color Walk Compendium: East Blue to Skypiea on July 3. The exclusive physical release will include over 300 pages of color art from the very beginning of the series to the Skypeia storyline.

Set for an exclusive print release on July 3rd, the deluxe hardcover book contains a collection of artwork from the world’s bestselling manga series. The ONE PIECE COLOR WALK COMPENDIUM: EAST BLUE TO SKYPIEA will be published under the Shonen Jump imprint and will carry an MSRP of $39.99 U.S. / $53.99 CAN.

Enjoy this gorgeous collection of color artwork from Eiichiro Oda’s ONE PIECE! Filled with color images and special illustrations from the world’s most popular manga series, the compendium features over 300 pages of beautiful color art, several large pull-out posters, and interviews between Eiichiro Oda and other famous manga artists, including Akira Toriyama, the creator of DRAGON BALL. This collection contains both volumes of previously released and now out-of-print COLOR WALK art books as well as COLOR WALK 3, which was never released in English, and covers the early parts of ONE PIECE—from the East Blue arc, where the main characters of the Straw Hat pirates first meet, to the Skypiea arc where Luffy and friends face high-flying adventures!

“ONE PIECE COLOR WALK COMPENDIUM: EAST BLUE TO SKYPIEA is the ultimate celebration of Eiichiro Oda’s landmark series and beloved characters,” says Alexis Kirsch, Editor. “This new release will be a vital addition to the collections of ONE PIECE fans.”
