Volume Description

This was the first ever English-language version of Astro Boy. The stories are adapted from the original Japanese version but with the artwork flipped so it read from left to right for the Western readers. It was Frederik L. Schodt who translated the stories into English and it was Schodt who came up with the English name for Astro Boy.
