I agree that GoComi's series lack some necessary kinds of awareness for their series. They don't have as much online presence as other company's to promote their series and their target audience really lives and breaths on the internet these days.

As for the books themselves, I know my public library has lots of GoComi titles which is great but the large bookstore chains in the area carry few or none from them at all which is obviously much less great :(

Go! Comi has great titles, but it's just that they lack awareness. Take for example: Bleach. It wouldn't have been a best-seller or anything if it hadn't gained an audience through places like onemanga or mangafox. So it had some connections before it became a hit. Therefore, people mainly use the internet nowadays but a majprity of us do still go to the library to study or check something out. So, one way to help raise some awareness on Go! Comi's series is by recommending the public libraries to check out some of Go! Comi's series or by making videos on Youtube of Go Comi's series like making trailers:)

Alas, as far as I can tell the Descendants of Darkness book isn't new material. It's the compiled version of the last few episodes, from back in 2001.
