in J-town, LA California. “The Edge of the Pacific” (2 versions of the title) was published twice a month during 3 periods of publication; 1986-87, 1990-91, and 2015-16.
Due to travels and changing organizing campaigns many comics strips were lost. The last versions done
In 2015-16 were computer drawn so they were saved. Thanks much to the Komai Family and owner Mickey Komai,
Naomi Hirahara, past editor and author, and Gwen Muranaka current editor, for their support for the comic strip over the years.
