Can Clones Learn To Love? Japan's Manga God Breaks Taboos to Answer
Osamu Tezuka (1928-1989), creator of Astro Boy and over 700 manga series, is often called the God of Comics or the Disney of the East. But neither title acknowledges the mark he's left on science fiction. If you don't know who he is, then you should get to know him — now. For decades, Tezuka's works weren't accessible to the non-Japanese-reading public. NBC aired over half of the Astro Boy anime series in the sixties, but the original manga wasn't published in English until 2002. At last, a handful of publishers is actively translating and releasing some of Tezuka's lesser known titles into English. One of the best is Apollo's Song, published in English for the first time a few months ago by Vertical Inc. Its an elegant, compact representation of Tezuka's scifi genius — and a milestone in Japanese free expression due to its frank depiction of sexuality in a postapocalyptic world. More » -

Welcome to the First World Clone Summit
Neasden Control Centre, a London artist project that quickly became a cult favorite after doing funky commercial prints for hot shot clients like MTV and Esquire in the early 2000s, has a cool new book out. It's called Lost Control, and it features 192 pages of full-color art, mostly original, 99% hand-drawn, depicting a range of neat-o concepts like diagrammed astronauts and a woodblock print-like greyhound running through bubble-letters. The picture above is my favorite. It's a summit of clones. More »
