コミック電撃大王 [Komikku Dengeki Daiō] [Comic Dengeki Daioh]

A pioneering monthly manga anthology from Ascii Media Works, Comic Dengeki Daioh ran for 18 issues from 1996 to 1999, carving out a distinct space for itself in the late-'90s Japanese magazine landscape. Though short-lived, it established the template for the publisher's later, longer-running Dengeki Daioh by blending original series with media tie-ins, and is remembered for launching the careers of key creators who defined the era's blend of action, comedy, and slice-of-life storytelling.
