Comix-ART (Russian: Комикс-Арт, Komiks-Art) is a comics imprint of Russian book publisher Domino.[1] It serves as a translator and the licensor of graphic novels, manga, manhwa and original English-language manga.[2] Comix-ART, founded in 2008[3] with headquarters in Saint Petersburg, releases its titles in collaboration with Eksmo, another publishing house,[4] and their books are published under "Eksmo" label. They do not reverse the pages (so called "flopping").
Comix-ART has been repeatedly criticized for the choice of fonts used to display letters inside the word balloons and for the placing of words in bubbles.[5][6][7] AniMag editor commented on their publication of Naruto that a reader cannot distinguish some letters "without a magnifying glass".[7]
