First, Hello, JeffBert! I trust you had a happy Thanksgiving! Okay, let me start by saying that the Kappa Comics Extra 2003 reprints, with some color pages, the "Ambassador Atom" serial as it was reprinted in the first Kodansha volume of "Astro Boy" and is said to be the version closest to the origi...

The picture on the left was on display as part of an art exhibit of Tezuka's work shown at a Japanese museum shortly after Tezuka's death. Interesting, the "Kappa" version, which is the same as what was published in a Kodansha "Complete works of Tezuka" Astro Boy volume, is what is known as "The Spa...

:o hmy: None of those, but rather, [attachment=]3505[/attachment] [url=http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E9%89%84%E8%85%95%E3%82%A2%E3%83%88%E3%83%A0%E3%80%8A%E3%82%AA%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B8%E3%83%8A%E3%83%AB%E7%89%88%E3%80%8B%E5%BE%A9%E5%88%BB%E5%A4%A7%E5%85%A8%E9%9B%86-%E3%83%A6%E3%83%8B%E3%83%83%E3%83%881-%E6...

But, anyway, I received it yesterday, flipped through all the books, & one story must have been drawn by somebody other than :te...

Thank you, JeffBert! Watching these images I can't help but wonder what Japanese children must have thought of this variation on "Tetsuan Atom". I can only try to remember what I thought when I saw the live-action "Batman" and "Superman" TV shows back when I was a kid in the sixties. While it is fun...

Please sir! May I have some more...more of the episode. I want to know if Atom survives!

Thanks, Fauna! These look like interesting books. It's so unfortunate that the English language versions, as far as I could tell, never made it into the US. (and I'm guessing into Canada.) Yet another chapter in the international history of Dr. Tezuka's robot boy!

I know I saw. But I'm not gonna watch it. Not yet anyways. I'm putting it off until Mondy when it shows in theaters here in the US. Do you have any idea how much I was tempted to see it!? But I want no more spoilers! But I'm excited to see it tommorrow. Got my TARDIS dress, and we're going to my fa...

For those who have access to the BBCAmerica cable channel, the Doctor Who "Deep Breath" episode will be airing beginning at 8:00pm EST tonight with a pre-show here in the USA.
