Several years ago, I made avatars for another forum I'm still on. Within the past couple days, I've gotten some inspiration to do the same for this forum.
I just finished making some avatars that you'll see in this post. The art on them comes from the cover art on the "Sun Comics" Japanese Astro Boy manga releases. I'm planning on making some alternates either tomorrow or the day after for these avatars with the original text from the cover arts on them.
I've got a couple more ideas for avatars to share with you guys as well. Those should come within the week.
Apologies if these are a little small; I had to sacrifice some width on these images in order to fit them within our 100x100 pixel rule for avatar size.
Anyway, here you go. You guys are free to use these avatars if you wish:
EDIT: I'll also share the first alternates to the avatars in the first post. As you can see, these alternates don't have vertical black bars on the sides of them:

Thank you both! 
Alright, I've gotten the numbered alternates for the previous avatars done. That will do it for this set.
Here are the numbered alternates with borders:

EDIT: I made a couple more just now. I forgot that I found one extra Sun Comic cover of which I'm unsure of its origin, but I'm sure many of you will appreciate its cuteness. If you have a Pinterest account, you should be able to get a high-quality version of the image from this link: [url]https://www.pinterest.com/pin/456411743457994889/[/url]
This other avatar comes from artwork made by Mine Yoshizaki, which I posted in my Osamu Moet Moso thread.

You should do the rest of those little images from the Moet Moso thing; they're all cute. I hadn't known about the Jetter Mars one, though, lol. I know of what I think was some sort of trading card, with Atom roughly as he appeared in the infamous "Return of Atom" arc, and I think it belongs to the same collection, or perhaps some extension of it. Idk, though. Screencapped it off of the site I found it on, as it wouldn't let me save the picture... so I'm not sure it's okay to post it. But it's the only one I've seen like it. :T

Unfortunately, I can't do all of the images since some of them are grainy and/or tiny, but I was able to do a few more avatars from that set. I'll include the red Atom picture from my last post since it comes from Osamu Moet Moso as well.

I just found what you're referencing. I don't see that much issue with it, so I'll post it over in the Osamu Moet Moso thread.

I was talking about the full set of the kinda samey-looking ones. It's too bad that the Triton one and the weird, construction-robot one don't have larger images. I bet someone could find them somewhere if they tried, but...
The thing about that card picture I found was that I think it was in a Japanese search for the story arc. Or for Atom in general...
It might have even been when I ran the Japanese for Jetter Mars through an image search... (I found some other cool things in that search, too. Merch for that arc apparently exists! Granted, it's just some character figurines...)
