if you didn’t recognize this guy in the front row, your manga fan card might have to be revoked, because it’s Osamu Tezuka, creator of Astro Boy, Black Jack, and omg, so much manga. Check out our @mangasplaining episode on Phoenix for more: https://t.co/CyaMPkBL27
This genial looking guy is Takao Saito, creator of super assassin Golgo 13. @VIZMedia published a 13-volume “greatest hits” collection of this 203-vol(!) series back when. If you’re lucky, you might find a print copy, but it’s also available digitally too https://t.co/a5hkl7au3K
This is a pre-perm Shotaro Ishinomori, another legendary mangaka we recently spotlighted on our Kamen Rider episode of @mangasplaining - https://t.co/SHGmEpD3Pg
As @MangaCast pointed out, Jiro Tsunoda is pictured just below Joya Kagemaru. Tsunoda was the original artist on Karate Baka Ichidai, a karate manga written by Ikki Kajiwara. Tsunoda drew it first, then after a disagreement with Kajiwara, Kagemaru took over art duties.
This is Jiro Kuwata - creator of 8 Man and the “Batman Manga” that’s now available in English fr @DCComics https://t.co/PCEtRRpgek - TY @AkiYanagi !
