Domo and friends
Domo, the fuzzy Japanese TV mascot turned merchandising phenomenon, will star in his own Tokyopop manga in September.
American audiences probably recognize Domo from a series of shorts on the Nicktoons Network, or from the Target Halloween promotions.
Oh, all right. You know him from an Internet meme: "Every time you masturbate ... God kills a kitten."
Yeah, that Domo.
He first appeared in 1998 in a series of stop-motion sketches shown as station identification for Japan's NHK. And now the flatulent-yet-adorable creature is everywhere: There are Domo T-shirts, Domo dolls, Domo key chains, Domo playing cards ... and now Domo manga.
