The Indian comic scene mainly comprised public domain mythological characters inspired from Ramayana and Mahabharata. Level 10 Studios focused on creating original intellectual properties.〔(The Hindu Newspaper mentions how Level 10 focuses on Indian characters rather than re-tellings. )〕 The company also ran a full-fledged Studio division offering visual graphic and design services to external clients. In December 2010, the company managed to raise angel funding from Seedfund〔(About Seedfund investing in Level 10. )〕 and Mumbai Angels, two of India's prominent early-stage venture capital firms. The company was renamed as 'Level 10 Entertainment' and eventually shut down its studio division to focus on the creation of new intellectual properties. It also re-launched its flagship publication 'Comic JUMP' and decided to shift focus to the 18-30 Urban Male demographic.〔(Article in the Telegraph newspaper about Level10 focusing on comics for adults. )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Level 10 Comics」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
