Tezuka! God of Manga Documentary Celebrates the Iconic Astro Boy Creator

There's no doubt that Osamu Tezuka belongs on the Mt. Rushmore of legendary manga creators. His work on Astro Boy alone cements his status as one of the most important figures in the medium. That creative legacy is being explored in a new documentary called Tezuka! God of Manga.

With the Kickstarter campaign for Tezuka! God of Manga live now, IGN can exclusively debut a new set of art prints being included in the campaign. Check them out in the slideshow gallery below:

Tezuka! God of Manga is directed by Jason Andrew Cohn. Here's the official description of the film:

“TEZUKA! God of Manga celebrates Tezuka-sensei as a preposterously prolific, enigmatic creator who forever altered popular culture by introducing young readers to a brand-new, DIY medium that rocketed around the world,” said Cohn in a statement. “The creative cross-fertilization between artists in Japan and the rest of the world made Tezuka one of the most beloved and influential artists of the 20th century. This film will celebrate his legacy and introduce his incredible creations to a new generation.”
