Okay so here is the thing. For an art progetc I have to write about an artist and say stuff like facts about his life and why I picked him. But there are still some stuff I need to know. Like how many manga's did he create in his life time? And what was his DOB and date of death? Not only that but I have to find two pieces by him and try to copy the techniques. I don't really want one of his manga covers or something like that, so does anyone know of any of his pieces? I heard that he used to draw really realistic bugs and stuff. Fankly, I'm having a really hard time trying to find this stuff online and I would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out. Thank you.

Osamu tezuka made 8 seiries of manga and died Febuary 9th 1989

Thank you both very much ^^

You're welcome! ^^

I also have this image, not sure if you can use it or not... but I saw this for sale on Ebay over a year ago. I watched it go from a starting bid of $0.99 and it sold for over $300 US dollars. The bidders were like pit bulls near the end.

LOL I don't think I can use that, but thats still a cool image ^^. XD I wouldda been like a pitbull too

I have been checking around lately and I can't seem to find what year it was that Tezuka made the encyclopedia of bugs. Does anyone know?

He made over 700 series and has more than 70 anime with his name on them.
