At least three of the manga titles in Shonen Jump's most recent print issue (October/November 2011) will continue in the digital Weekly Shonen Jump Alpha next January: Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece. Shonen Jump has been publishing Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, Toriko, and Bakuman. online since 2010 with a supplement only available to print magazine subscribers.
Wow I really loved to collect the print version :-(
Shonen Jump USA edition started in 2002, due to the growing popularity of anime and manga series outside of Japan.
At least the advantage I see is that its format will be weekly instead of monthly!
