After all, Solo Leveling did wrap its story December 2021. Creators Chugong and Dubs came together to unravel a delicious story about supernatural hunters and fantasy action. Sadly, the webtoon’s artist passed away shortly after Solo Leveling wrapped. Dubu, who was born Jang Sung-rak, died in July 2022 after suffering from a cerebral hemorrhage. Since then, Solo Leveling has released new tributes to Dubu, but this new webtoon will be the first Solo Leveling expansion to go live since the artist’s passing.

If you are not familiar with Solo Leveling, you will want to get familiar with the title ASAP. Not only is the webtoon one of the biggest to ever come from South Korea, but it is heading to Japan thanks to A-1 Pictures. The studio licensed Solo Leveling for an anime that is slated to drop in early 2024.
