The cover features Jolyne Cujoh and Jotaro Kujo with art by Hirohiko Araki from the Stone Ocean arc.
The first issue will feature a cover drawn by series creator, Hirohiko Araki. It will contain an interview with Issey Takahashi. The actor behind the title character in the live-action JoJo spinoff, Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan. Speaking of Rohan Senshi, JOJO Magazine will also feature a 71-page one-shot manga for Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan. The manga comes complete with a full-color page.
JoJo’s Bizzare Adventure History
To date, Hirohiko Araki has released eight parts of the Jojo story in the manga. The most recent of these is Jojolioin, but Araki has confirmed that he is working on the ninth arc, known as JoJolands.
JoJo’s Bizzare Adventure originally ran weekly in Shonen Jump from 1984 until 2004. It has since been published in Ultra Jump magazine since 2005. With more than a hundred and thirty volumes, Jojo is one of the publisher’s longest-running and most popular manga series.
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure follows the Joestar/Cujoh family through the generations as various family members realize that they have special powers and sworn enemies. Every part follows a different descendant of Jonathan Joestar, often with their super-powered friends. Each part has very little connection to the previous outside of familial ties.
Each arc is drastically different from the last in tone and completely separate in the plot. This makes for a show that’s uniquely easy to jump into at the beginning of any part, but also nearly impossible to describe. The most recent arc to see animation is Stone Ocean. It was released on December 1st of this year and can be found exclusively on Netflix.

JOJO Magazine Release
Issue one of JOJO Magazine will be ¥1,650, or about 14 US dollars. And for what they’re offering, $14 seems like a more than fair price.
JOJO Magazine will be available simultaneously in a B5-sized softcover print edition, as well as a digital release. Unfortunately, for those of us not in Japan and not fluent in Japanese, it’s hard to say how easily we will be able to obtain or find a translated version of JOJO Magazine. That said, I may have to get my hands on a copy for the art alone.
Are you a fan of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures? Are you thinking about picking up a copy of JOJO Magazine for yourself it’s at all available? How are you enjoying Stone Ocean so far? Let us know in the comments!
Ja Ne, Adventures!
