American fashion brand and manga publisher
Massive Goods (or simply Massive ) is a fashion brand and manga publisher. The company works with LGBTQ and feminist comic artists in Japan , particularly gay manga (bara ) artists, to create products featuring their artwork, and English-language translations of their works.
History [ edit ]
Massive was founded in 2013 by Anne Ishii and Graham Kolbeins concurrent with the release of The Passion of Gengoroh Tagame: Master of Gay Erotic Manga (Picturebox ), the first English-language publication of works by Gengoroh Tagame , which Ishii and Kolbeins co-edited with Chip Kidd .[1] Massive first released a line of t-shirts featuring artwork by Tagame and Jiraiya ,[2] which gained popularity in the LGBTQ hip-hop scene .[3]
On June 7, 2019, Massive went on hiatus. While the company continues to fulfill online orders, it is not presently planning new product launches or events.[4]
Fashion [ edit ]
In partnership with other brands, Massive has launched several fashion and accessory lines, primarily featuring Jiraiya's artwork. In June 2014, Massive, Jiraiya, and Opening Ceremony launched a product line to commemorate Pride Month which featured apparel, accessories, and a Tenga sex toy.[3] [5] That same year, Mission Chinese Food and Massive released a t-shirt collaboration, also featuring art by Jiraiya.[6] A second collaboration with Opening Ceremony and Jiraiya, "Power-Up Massive", launched in 2015,[7] [8] along with a line of swim briefs with artwork by Jiraiya created by Pretty Snake, the fashion brand founded by Project Runway contestant Joe Segal.[9]
Publishing [ edit ]
In December 2014, Fantagraphics published Massive: Gay Erotic Manga and the Men Who Make It , the first English-language anthology of gay manga .[10] Co-edited by Ishii, Kolbeins, and Kidd, Massive was nominated for an Eisner Award for Best Anthology .[11]
Massive has published several English-language translations of dōjinshi , including Cretian Cow by Gengoroh Tagame,[12] and Caveman Guu and Two Hoses by Jiraiya.[12] [13]
In 2016, Massive co-produced with Koyama Press an English-language translation of What is Obscenity?: The Story of a Good For Nothing Artist and her Pussy , a graphic novel memoir by Rokudenashiko .[14] The memoir was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize .[15] That same year, Massive began work with Pantheon Books on the English-language translation of My Brother's Husband , Gengoroh Tagame's first all-ages manga.[16] The first volume in the series, translated by Ishii, won an Eisner Award for Best U.S. Edition of International Material—Asia .[17]
Massive Gay Manga, a publishing imprint set to launch under Bruno Gmünder Verlag in 2017, was cancelled following the dissolution of the company.[18]
