A brimming with originality, adorned with gorgeous colors and featuring original lines that hold boundless charm—this is truly the "original"!
To commemorate the 80th anniversary of Tezuka Osamu's birth, we are reprinting the original magazine edition, which has never before been published in book form, in its entirety for the first time. Using cutting-edge digital processing, we have faithfully reproduced the feel of the magazine and the beautiful color pages, and we have even included works and illustrations from this first-time book, as well as supplements, all packaged in a luxuriously decorated box.
This long-awaited reprint series is a must-have collector's item for not only Tezuka fans, but all manga fans.
Continuing books: "Cactus-kun" (scheduled for December 2009) and "Detective Chief Ken" (scheduled for February 2010), both estimated at ¥6,000-¥8,000.
