I am surprised they don't release the Manga for part 4 as normal tankobons in the US. I mean since it sells so well and the anime is going, kinda dumb no?

Not really especially given the fact that part 4's anime is five episodes in and not everyone is reading off the manga or has read it period.

Stardust crusaders was released before too but didn't do that well. Now that Jojo has had a proper exposition to the Western anime market through the anime, I figured it would have made sense to offer part 4. Theres no jojonium for part 4 either. At least yet.

And there will never be. JoJonium itself was already discontinued in Japan and replaced with a new massive omnibus collection (which is currently on Part 4). It's possible that we'll see that release in the west instead.

Damn, so is just a regular 3-in-1 omnibus for Part 4? Does it have a special name akin to Jojonium?
