I feel like tezuka's name can't be written without manga legend or some such coming before it, because apparently he invented the genre out of whole cloth or something. I haven't read any of his other books beyond casual leafing. He definitely has an interesting style of characters that all look like astro boy with some really stunning background/action. This is probably the first manga I managed to read all the way through, usually the whole backwards pages plus read the boxes the other way really throws me off. I still struggled occasionally. I decided to go with this because I thought Buddha might be boring (does that make me lame?) and this one promised to be full of action and blood. Living up to my expectations but also surpassing them in the realm of batshit weird things going on.
