Tezuka, pt.2
Oct. 20th, 2003 01:02 amPart two of three on my favorite of Osamu Tezuka's works.

Again, I'm not sure what the title of this work is (though it's volume 4 of "The Best Of" series of Tezuka's works). Fred Patten would be the person to ask about anything-manga.
This story involves a boy and his jackal-y wonder dog and a supernaturally powerful leopard. He and two other trained dogs are hired to hunt down a she-leopard who has been causing trouble. Fairly straight- forward story about a dog-hero (with an unusual twist as to how he defeats the evil she-leopard). Again, I like the designs and the story.
Hey, Calicougar!
At one point one of the dogs is trapped and beset by vipers...and for some reason this really reminded me of Cody and his reaction to a vicious straw wrapper on a recent dogwalk...heh. (Just replace snakes with straw wrappers or Red Vines)
