For those of you who like Manga or just can't get enough of Transformers stuff, you can view each of the posts here and here respectively.

Cool! Was looking forward to this release

Where can fans in the US get the Henkei Henkei Transformers Graphic Novel Volume #1?

Also, will it be available only in Japanese?

Is it a compilation of all the Henkei pack in comics thus far?

*faint*

In answer to your questions in order:
I don't know, probably, and no. It's a compilation of comics from the magazine Comic Bun Bun, about a boy called Wataru Hoshinoumi helping Convoy, Bumble, Ligier and Grimlock fight off the evil Destrons.

Sounds like most people stateside would only be able to read it in peices as translated fan scans online some distant day from now. Also sounds a bit bizzare.

It's really not bizarre, it's the same cod-anime plot that's been going on for years, whether it's Digimon, Transformers or whatever. Either way, Wataru gets his grubby mitts on the Energon Cube and gets the ability to make forcefields, heal Transformer wounds, convert Jetfire to th side of good etc. It's horribly predictible but if you wanted originality you're really following the wrong franchise.
