Review of new Astroboy manga

[jeffbert]

I have a series that also has text all the way into the spine.

I think I will pass on this for now. Hopefully, some US company will print a version with inside margins.

I really wish to get my hands on a translated copy. I was already so thankful that I got my hands on at least the Japanese version. Good thing my uncle went to Japan and I asked him to buy for me the manga.

Does anybody have any more volumes of this series?

From the picture you've provided, I can see what you mean by being "busier." That's kind of the standard for Manga these days hence why I rarely read them and why Tezuka works for me. It's not as busy and I can follow it better. However, I think this style could attract more young and modern manga fans to Astro Boy because this goes for that busier, more modern approach that they're more familiar with. that said I still really would like to read these and I hope hope HOPE these come to America when the new movie comes out.
