Inklore, an adult comics imprint of the Random House Publishing Group, and Ink Pop, a new line of global comics for kids and teens from Random House Children’s Books, announced at Anime Expo this past weekend that they will partner with Webtoon to bring 14 of its most popular webcomics into print over the next five years.
