Do you have Fred Schodt's book?

I got Fred's book "Astro Boy essay's" two days ago and I must say it has to be the best informational about Tezuka ever written. If you want it, a good used copy on Amazon will cost 5 dollars to 8 dollars.

I have both that & God of Comics; together they give a good view of Tezuka's life & works. While Schodt writes from personal experience with Tezuka, Onada Power writes from the perspective of one who has read most of his manga.
