Toomics (Korean: 투믹스) is a South Korean webtoon platform and digital comics publisher headquartered in Seoul. Founded in 2015, the service hosts comics in a vertical-scrolling format and offers content in multiple languages, including English, Chinese, and Spanish.[1] It is known for its "VIP" subscription model and a diverse library that includes both general-audience and mature titles.
History
[edit]Toomics was established in 2015. By relying on high-quality intellectual property (IP) and distribution capacity, the company experienced rapid growth, reporting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42% between 2018 and 2021.[2]
In July 2022, the platform was acquired by Terapin Studios, a subsidiary of the global investment firm NPX Capital, for approximately US$160 million. The acquisition was part of Terapin Studios' strategy to leverage Korean digital content for global media expansion.[3]
Service and Content
[edit]Toomics operates on a "freemium" model where users can read some chapters for free, but must purchase a "VIP Membership" to access the full catalog and latest updates. The platform distinguishes between its "All Ages" service and "Toomics Global" (often featuring mature themes).
One of the platform's most notable exclusive titles is Leviathan, a post-apocalyptic deep-sea sci-fi series illustrated by Lee Gyuntak, which has received critical acclaim for its artwork.[4] The platform continues to expand its reach globally, competing with other major services like Naver Webtoon and KakaoPage.[5]
