He published more than 150,000 pages of comics, produced animated films, wrote essays and short fiction, and earned a Ph.D. in medicine. He is best known for establishing story comics as the mainstream genre in the Japanese comic book industry, creating narratives with cinematic flow and complex characters. This style influenced all subsequent Japanese output. This book chronicles Tezuka's life and works, placing his creations both in the cultural climate and in the history of Japanese comics.Great comics artists series.Comic books, strips, etcJapanHistory and criticismComic books, strips, etc.History and criticism.741.5/952Power Natsu Onoda1818056StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910969013403321God of comics4376991UNINA$25.0003/19/2018Art
