This is on the Tezuka in English site http://tezukainenglish.com/?q=node/216/ Tenma Hoshie is Tobio's mother. She appears in only one series in the manga, Once Upon a Time Astroboy Tales -- to see the rest check out the link. At the bottom I see Jeffbert's name so we can thank him for uncovering thi...

I believe in the original manga, she divorced Dr. Tenma after he sold Astro to the circus. But you never see her, and that always irked me.

[QUOTE=AprilSeven;98659]Of course Dr. Tenma could create Uran in a sequel just to give Astro a sibling... Luke and Leia did NOT look alike - that's why I was taken by surprise when it was revealed they were (fraternal, of course) twins. Uran looks very much like Astro with her spikes going in diffe...

Now THAT'S freaking disturbing! You can find more here: http://audobonbridge.tripod.com/toontown/now5.html Now Comics created a kind of bizarro Astro universe, and this person was able to collect most of them and posted some of the content (along with her own commentary which was pretty darn funny).

You know, I had that same thought!! Maybe we're both on to something here -- after all Dr. Elefun built Uran -- but Astro is not estranged from Dr. Tenma at the end of the film, so there would be no "reason" for Uran to exist. BTW I understand your feelings -- I was freaked out when I found out Luke...

See, I TOLD you so!!! see this link http://www.astroboy-online.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5102 And if it's being made public, he's further along than what they're saying! And what's up with all you people afraid of the possibility of it being a "Blue Knight?" Geez, that's also Anti-Astro Boy -- you...

I have a feeling we'll see an adaptation of "Pluto" before we get "Astro Boy 2." Pluto could be presented either live action or cg or "traditional" animation, and it has a stand-alone story that works even if you don't know who Atom/Astro Boy is. Although I really enjoyed the movie (it wasn't perfec...
