    I am part of the scanlation group working on the Kapital manga (the same that started translating Mein Kampf) - in fact I am the one that did the editing and typesetting for it (and played the Marxist advisor for side notes in the manga).

    Translator got tired of it, would translate myself but have so much else on my hands...

    First chapter is actually basically ready for publication. No idea if it will ever see the light of day though, and I am unaware where the story is going as I have no access to scans.

    Basically, the story follows a young dairy farmer and his petty bourgeois father who is confronted with a wealthy industrialist, and marxist concepts are thrown in along the way.

    Fun fact, most explanations of the marxist concepts in the manga are plain wrong (mostly because of bourgeois distortion), I had to come up with new short explanations myself.
