Dororo (volumes 1-3)


Osamu Tezuka and Craig Thompson are my favorite graphic novelists of all time. No busty babes, just intelligent writing and drawing. DORORO is the story of an extremely disabled teenager (born without 48 appendages due to his father's deal with demons). DORORO is actually the sidekick, an orphan and self-styled awesome kid thief (think of a crude Robin and you've got it) with a strange tattoo on his back. The warrior is on a journey to reclaim all his appendages from the demons and ends gaining Dororo as a brother. A good follow-up to Tezuka's PHOENIX and BUDDHA.
