Digital Manga Publishing (DMP) will release a special 40th anniversary collector's edition of the original 1966 Speed Racer: Mach Go Go Go manga on February 26, 2008. The car racing manga predated the 1967-68 Speed Racer anime series, which itself is currently being remade into a live-action film directed by Larry and Andy Wachowski. DMP's edition will contain two hardcover volumes, and is priced at US$39.99. As Digital Manga Publishing
announced at Anime Expo 2007, this manga will be the first published under the company's DMP Platinum imprint.
