Resident Evil/Biohazard: heavenly island Manga Goes on 3-Month Hiatus
posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
This year's 20th issue of Akita Shoten's Weekly Shōnen Champion announced on Thursday that Naoki Serizawa's Biohazard: heavenly island manga will go on a 3-month hiatus. The manga will return in the magazine's 32nd issue on July 9.
Serizawa launched the Biohazard: heavenly island in Weekly Shōnen Champion on January 15, and Akita Shoten shipped the first compiled volume in March. The manga's story centers around the film crew for Idol Survival, the internationally popular television program where swimsuited idols compete in games. The crew arrives on the same isolated South American island that TerraSave member Claire Redfield is visiting on an investigation.
Serizawa's earlier Biohazard: Marhawa Desire launched with a prologue chapter in the inaugural issue of CAPCOM's CapBom! magazine in 2011, and the series ended last year. Viz Media publishes the manga in North America.
