| | 1. |  | Buddha, Volume 1: Kapilavastu (Buddha)
from Vertical
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
We've been reading the eight volumes from beginning to end in our Tezuka fever. Buddha certainly feels like a major work and I would recommend it both as a dedicated approach to the figure of Buddha and as classic of storytelling. But Buddha is most importantly enjoyable to see Tezuka developing... more info

| | 2. |  | Buddha, Vol. 2: The Four Encounters
from Vertical
Price: $7.95
Customer Review:
More of the story of young Sidhartha struggling with his posh prince place in a strongly caste system, and his fear of death and suffering. An 'enlightened' Sidartha fights against the caste system, which is paramount to treason, and slowly learns his true place in all things.

| | 3. |  | Devadatta (Buddha, Vol. 3)
from Vertical
Price: $9.95
Customer Review:
This 3rd book of the series got me hooked. The first two volumes are more like an introduction, and in this book the story finally takes off. The story continues in the same pace as the first two volumes, which makes it a pleasant read.
The story of Siddharta continues as he teams up with... more info

| | 4. |  | Black Jack, Volume 1
from Vertical
Price: $11.53
Customer Review:
I would recommend this book both to people who are Tezuka fans and to people who are new to Tezuka's work. This volume contains twelve relatively short self-contained stories, so it might be a good choice for those who don't want to commit to reading one of the longer Tezuka stories like Phoenix or... more info

| | 5. |  | MW
from Vertical
Price: $16.47
Customer Review:
I feel conflicted about Osamu Tezuka's MW. On one hand I enjoyed the intriguing plot and the way he was able to use the comic medium to display such horrific crimes. These acts would have been very difficult to display in any other medium. The story is also an interesting statement on the... more info

| | 7. |  | Apollo's Song
from Vertical
Price: $13.57
Customer Review:
After seeing an exhibit of Tezuka's original pages last fall, I was eager to dive into one of his more mature works. I've read a handful of volumes of "Astro Boy" before, and while I can appreciate them, I'll admit that I wasn't exactly blown away. "Apollo's Song" is one of the books that excerpts... more info

| | 8. |  | Buddha, Volume 8: Jetavana (Buddha)
from Vertical
Price: $16.47
Customer Review:
This is the last of the 8-volume "Buddha" series. This graphical biography of a religious leader is great and understandable in the Japanese manga style. There is also scenes of non-sequitar humor injected by the artist as "comic relief". Readers of all ages will love all 8 volumes.

| | 9. |  | Buddha: Volume 8: Jetavana (Buddha)
from Vertical
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
Compare to previous volumes, this volume covers way too much ground and literally is pretty much jumping from places to places. I gave 5 stars for previous volumes but cannot on this one. Also the ending was a bit funny. It was very solemn at the end so it was a bit hard to read. I think what's cool... more info

| | 10. |  | Dororo Volume 1 (Dororo)
from Vertical
Price: $11.16
Customer Review:
The first volume of "Dororo" has been put together by Vertical with wonderful aesthetics.
The story itself is fairly self explanatory; I'm sure if you've read this far you already know that it's protagonist, Hyakkimaru, is in search of his body parts, each protected by a demon which he must... more info
