Description: Astro Boy #1 Shonen April 1952 Manga Osamu Tezuka Golden Age GRAIL US Seller All pages and the covers are intact. There is 1 insert missing in the beginning of the book which is in the photos. This is Astro Boy #1 by the great Osamu Tezuka. Whether this is his "true" first appearance is up for debate, but I'm not interested in playing that game. In my mind, this is the Superman #1 of manga. Any inquiries to make offers lower than the asking price will be ignored or rejected. My asking price is more than fair. People routinely pay a lot more for a lot less in the comic world. This is a rare opportunity to add one of the most significant books in the manga medium to your collection.
