WILL THE REAL DR. TENMA PLEASE SPEAK UP!

Postby ASTROBUDDY » 14 years ago

Some of you may have seen at least one of the pictures below. The first is the first page of the original version of the introduction of Atom in "Atom(u) Taishi" as it was illustrated in 1951. The other is the version done when Tezuka was first redoing the episode that introduces Atom, I believe beginning in 1953. As well as the differences in the scientist at the controls, Atom is also a little different. So what say you, will the real Dr. Tenma (which has also been translated as: Dr. Tenba and Dr. Temma.) speak up!
I :heart: :astro: :D

Is it just me, or does the original Tenma look like Gerald Robotnik from Sonic Adventure 2? (except without the mustache):

But why does Tenma look like Gary from Pokemon , an emo guy or Matthew Patel from Scott Pilgrim?

Image

And why does the bal guy look like the bald fat guy from Despicable Me?

The creators of Scott Pilgrim were influenced by Tezuka so I'm not surprised. I have never read any of their titles besides Scott, but the storytelling seems to be relatively inspired by his later works.

I don't find it a coincidence for the Despicable Me comparison since Universal is making PLUTO.
