The day has finally come! It’s release day for Unico: Awakening!
Being able to see this book’s journey from its Kickstarter in 2022 to the worldwide launch in 2024 thanks to Scholastic/Graphix has been fun, and I’m excited to see Unico’s story continue over the coming years. It’s a joyful feeling to see a beloved character from my childhood connecting with a new generation and inspiring countless new readers.
I know I’m just an old school fan running a blog/fan site, but I appreciate everyone involved with Unico: Awakening and bringing Osamu Tezuka’s little unicorn to more audiences. Many thanks to Samuel Sattin and Gurihiru for all their hard work, and to all the others who helped bring this project to life. You all did an amazing job and I’m sure Osamu Tezuka would be proud! Congratulations everyone!
If you didn’t preorder your copy, no worries because it’s now available at bookstores and online retailers in hard and soft cover versions and ebook! Support your local stores as well!

The second volume, Unico: Hunted, will be available on June 2025, and I look forward to reading it when it’s available!
