Show Notes

HyZackimaru , who only has one real body part (wink), and his feisty sidekick DorCharlotte continue our six part series on the works of Osamu Tezuka.

Comics covered in this episode:
– Kimba the White Lion, Princess Knight, & Dororo

Topics discussed:
– What new techniques do we see Tezuka employ as his career progressed?
– Is Princess Knight feminist? Sexist? Both? Neither?!
– Does Tezuka work well in a serialized style or would self-contained works suit him better?

3. Swallowing the Earth, Apollo’s Song, Ode to Kirihito, The Book of Human Insects & MW
4. Ayako & Buddha
5. Black Jack
