Description

Phoenix, Volume 12: The First Works of Osamu Tezuka

A Look at the Beginning of Manga's Greatest Epic

Phoenix, Vol. 12 - Early Works by Osamu Tezuka, the "God of Manga," gives us a look at the first versions of his famous Phoenix series. These early stories, which were first published in the 1950s, set the stage for Tezuka's life's work, a huge, philosophical look at death, rebirth, and the human spirit.

This book shows how Tezuka's art and thinking have changed over time and incorporates his trademark storytelling approach. This book is a must-have for manga collectors, Tezuka fans, and aficionados of speculative fiction. It has both standalone stories and themes that are important to the Phoenix arc.

Book Set

Great for people who like Buddha, Astro Boy, and Naoki Urasawa's Pluto. It's also great for manga historians, collectors, and anyone who wants to learn more about the history of Japanese graphic novels.
