Astro Boy Vol
10
by Osamu Tezuka; translation by Frederik L. Schodt
With the Metropolis animated feature a critically-acclaimed
must-see, and with the upcoming Sony Astro Boy film readying for 2003 release, the works
of Osamu Tezuka are being enthusiastically discovered and re-discovered by American
audiences. Tezuka is the unquestioned creative wellspring for the modern anime and manga
industries, the influence of his genius now pervading popular culture around the globe,
and Astro Boy is the quintessential Tezuka work - innovative, exciting, hilarious, and
even heartbreaking. Few works of graphic fiction - or any fiction, for that matter - offer
so much fun and humanity that appeals to so many different ages. In this volume: Astro
battles the mighty (and really BIG!) Garon; Astro must solve "The 100 Million Year
Old Crime;" and Astro is stolen!
