Astro Boy Vol 3 (1952)


by Osamu Tezuka

The original story that inspired Takashi Urasawa's Pluto storyline. The retrolicious design of Astro Boy is delightful, and I was surprised at the subtle hints of erotica (e.g. when Astro Boy needs an oil change , Uran running out into the cold night in just Astro Boy's shorts and even the scene where Uran shares her stickers with Pluto to name a few)

A great read for the comic buffs but perhaps it might be dated for the general public to appreciate and enjoy.
