Relay Manga
Since 2017, I've started relay manga again, with Mark Egan. You also can read it on Pixiv page. We got a new member Faith in 2019, so Vol. 8 has 3 creators' "Lost in Coffee Space" story.

The subject
can be anything about Coffee Party characters. Croissant, Éclair, and others. It must have Croissant or Éclair at least. 4-koma, 8-koma, illustration, manga, comic, everything is OK.
Who is Croissant and Éclair?
You can add your original character if you like - he or she should be named by a sweet (hairstyle), typical one in your country (Something nice with coffee).
You can buy the back numbers by mail order.
You can read some back numbers from here. See how Croissant and Éclair are like.
