🥳Happy Birthday, Astro, for your 23rd #birthday! In the original manga, he was born on April 7, 2003. Your compassion toward humanity is what we need the most now. (pic. at the entrance of @TEZUKA_ENG) #OsamuTezuka #AstroBoy

@debaoki There is James P. Hogan's Two Faces of Tomorrow, which Hoshino illustrated, but it's kinda pricey now. darkhorse.com/books/13-662/t…

A rare opportunity to buy manga pages and illustrations, directly from the artist. It’s a shame that we dont have much of Yukinobu Hoshino’s manga in English, other than this Professor Munetaka adventure commissioned by the British Museum some years ago…

【Itaru Kinoshita “Comics in the City” Event at CCA】 The first part of the “Comics in the City” event was held at California College of the Arts (CCA). At the talk session, with MINT advisor Deb Aoki @debaoki moderating, Itaru Kinoshita @kurinosukeboy talked about dinosaurs, making manga, and more. Shinchosha editor Tomoka Matsumura provided insight as the editor for “Dinosaur Sanctuary” with Fred Schodt @fschodt providing interpretation. After the talk was a Q&A session where participants asked questions about his works and life as a manga artist. At the book signing after the talk session, many “Dinosaur Sanctuary” fans were happy to receive sketches and autographs! #MINT #Mangacreators2025 #manga #comics #illustration #ItaruKinoshita #DinosaurSanctuary #CaliforniaCollegeoftheArts

Thoughts on the 4th of July. 249 years after a War of Independence to free ourselves from a monarchy and form a radical new democratic republic, who do we have as president? A fat capitalist pig, a narcissist masquerading as a populist, who wants to be king.
