About the Author

Known as the "Godfather of Manga" (and sometimes simply the "God of Manga"), Osamu Tezuka is one of the most beloved and prolific comic book artists of all time. In a career spanning over forty years, he redefined the medium, spawning international hits like Astro Boy and Dororo, as well as award-winning adult masterworks including Buddha, Black Jack, and Message to Adolf. Bomba! represents a previously untranslated gem from Tezuka's vast and varied catalog.

In 2020, he was posthumously inducted into the Harvey Award Hall of Fame.
