Dark Mage 21a (End?!)

What do Firefly, My So-Called Life, and Dark Mage all have in common: they're all things that ended before their time. That's right folks, this remarkable manhwa ends with Volume 6.

The Dark Mage manhwa is actually based on a 15 volume series of Korean novels completed by Kim Jung-ryul in 2002. Sadly, however, when publisher BookBox went under in 2008, the manhwa was discontinued. While it's possible some other publisher might pick up the series, at this late date, our magic 8-ball says it's very doubtful.

But what happens to Damon you're probably wondering? Does he make it back home to exact his revenge? Do the Dragons succeed in eradicating humanity? And what about Lord Crossen? Well, if you really want to know, I suppose you could brush up on your Korean or adopt a Korean pen pal.

Or better yet, you can mosey on over to our forums, where we've started a novel summaries thread.

  • Guest-Dude

    Goddamnit. This was such an awesome story. Why must the good always die young? Now I’m hoping Gunka no Balzer and Noblesse at least don’t end anytime soon…

    Was one of the good ones…I’ll really miss it.
    Well, need to find some translated novel, cya :)

    Love you eggs (did I say that, really? oh s—) at least noblesse is still on…
    Awesome scans :)

  • T1

    Yes, I kinda guessed that when I checked the update on amazon and saw that while there were lots of novels the manga did stop a long time ago.
    Still thanks a lot to eg and the translator for making summaries for us. Appreciate it a lot.

    Thanks and keep up the good work.^^

  • LoneHermit

    such a shame it has to end like this thanks for all the work

  • Gator

    oh noooes! It had so much potential that I thought it would be the next Berserk!! And by the way I found out in this chapter that dark are similar to warlocks of D&D because of the need to perform a contract with an otherwordly creature. I gave alot of thougt to that class myself. I would perform a star contact with a cthulu-like creature and cast madness spells upon my enemies!!
    Well thx for the great work.

  • Monkna_71

    Thanks so much for at least “finish” this amazing work. It’s sad that “the talented die young” is true even within the manga world. Life is hard when you see works that goes by unfinished but there’s very little we fans can do when publishers go under. I’ll really miss this serie because it had it all for me. The adictive art, the captiving story, the original characters, and amazing setting.

    So all I can say now is; Jag kommer sakna dig, Dark Mage. (I’ll miss you, Dark Mage)
    From a faithfull reader in Sweden

    • Jfforums

      well said Monkna_71, this is one of the best manhwas i have been read in my life. And egscans team, thx a lot for summaries, it would be quite sad not knowing the ending of this saga :(

      I meni ćeš nedostajati, Dark Mage.

      Faithfull reader from Serbia.

    • Mire

  • Azul

    What a bad day this turn out to when I was about to be cheered up by more chapters of Dark Mage I hear of this and now I’m reminded of Firefly :(

  • lachmanpiotr

    FIRST
    Discontinuing one of the greatest Korean manhwa is unacceptable.
    SECOND
    If there is novel version of “Dark Mage” it should be translated to English whole.

  • Sigfodr

    nooooo this can not be the end :-(

  • Remon

    What a waste. To think such a good manhwa is discontinued, damn. Koreans don’t have any sense of taste at all. Whatever thanks a lot for the new chapter and for the summaries. :D

  • Guest

    nOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~ T_T ~

  • Tim

    Its not like there was a choice, the publisher BookBox went under. Pity none of the other publishing houses are open minded though.
    Thank you for the consideration of the staffs in regards to the translation summaries. At least, you guys haven’t abandoned the faithfuls.

  • Rengetsu08

    Can’t believe it is it a goodbye!?… T_T but I Thank Egscans for bringing this great manwha to us!

  • Ujujinsan

    Nontheless this manhwa is very inspiring :)

    hi guy just came to report in. since some fans really are starting to beg on the forums for a translation of the novel i decided to translate it myself. i found a torrent for the dark mage novel and ill start working on a translation i might just be able to pull it off. the torrent is downloading at speeds of over 300kb/s as soon i finish the translation ill let you know where you can download it. peace up dudes and gals.

  • Digitalfowl

    @lackmanpotr
    I agree completely with you

  • whitereaper

    Tried to see if somebody asked this already but got tired of looking so sorry if somebody already asked. What is the chance that you guys can translate the novels like was done with 1/2 prince?

    • ClaudiaEGS

      If someone comes along who would like to translate it, we wouldn’t mind releasing it.

  • Vilemk0

    WTF!? NOOOOO! No way it can end… We need a fucking protest for this shit.

  • Zerochan

    how could they discontinue this ??????…so..I must admit that I just read this story in one go today and that I’m not some hardcore fan >.< BUT I really like it and the first 21 chapters seem like a prologue to an even greater and epic story -.-…..well I'll defenitely read the summaries so that I at leas get to know the ending XD
    EGS you did a great job and you always choose great projects to translate so this really is a shame ^^

  • gfgdg gfdgdfg

  • Guest

    im praying….

  • Rahul Sarkar

    I was loving it ! I am sure along with others, everyone is just waiting to see how Damon plans to avenge himself and his followers who were killed…..
    He is going to become the baddest ass Dark Mage ever and kick the mighty whopping ass…

    I cant wait to see how he would handle the Dragons, does he become their arch rival and fight them to death or does he become their ally and get them to help him get his revenge…. ufff so many possiblities…

    It sucks so majorly that this ends with ch21…. drat drat drat!!!! i cant wait for the summaries to come fast enough …. I need to go and check on the net if the original novel is available in english anywhere…..

    Thans Egscan team for your efforts , appreciate it really!!!

  • Laurens
