Description

Breathtakingly paced and gorgeously composed pages, alive with passion and humor –L.A. Weekly
Considered by many the peak of Osamu Tezuka’s artistic achievement and called his “life’s work” by the author, Phoenix is made up of twelve complex stories linked by the presence of the mythical bird, an immortal guardian of the universal life force. Read in order, the separate stories jump across time, alternating between a distant future and a distant past, converging on the present, with characters from one story being reincarnated in another.
Final Volume!!!
Phoenix: Early Works contains stories serialized from 1954 to 1957. This volume follows the tumultuous love affair of a sweet-voiced slave girl named Daia and the Egyptian Crown Prince through the ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman eras…with a little help from the Phoenix and her adorable offspring.
The stories collected here showcase an earlier phase of Tezuka’s art and storytelling–and expose a more youthful, sweet side of the master creator. They also illustrate the link between early manga and American comics and cartoons, and reveal Tezuka’s deep fascination with Walt Disney. These short pieces were originally geared toward a younger audience than the Phoenix sagas which began in the 1960s.
