Hi! I think the item is a copy of the Astro Boy mangas published by Kodansha and were released with the stories in chronological order. I would have to dig out my copy to tell you which stories are in this particular volume, but I am sure all the stories in this volume are included in the English A...

There are no official stories explaining why Astro Boy would have a particular anything of any color, (not counting the story about Astro Boy's red boots. because that has to do with the boots themselves which happen to be red, signifying nothing, other than his red boots look cool); so any stories ...

ATOMCAT (IN ENGLISH) ARRIVES!

True in this manga series "Astro Boy" is only a supporting player, or more accurately a catalyst for "Atomcat" stories, still the series is i...

I've figured out that the final three lines are: "What can I do" "To be like you" "And become a real Astro boy" But I haven't figured out the first two lines. Anybody? "Astro Boy says okay On your flight into space! ...

I remember seeing "Jason and the Argonauts" back in the theaters in 1963. It is one of my favorite fantasy films. Mr. Harryhausen made some of the best sci-fi/fantasy films of all time.

The problems of translating! We both have seen how one translator says, "Guernica", while another says "Gelnika" for the same katakana. In this case "Volt" and "Bolt", both have something to do with lightning and electricity. As for "Livian" and "Libian", Libian is too close to Libyan, that the idea...
