i wish you guys could see the last six episodes of the new version before you judged! everything in the new series leads up to a final confrontation between robots and humans that is thrilling and some of the most exciting and dramatic animation i have ever worked on.

Who's WillHeim? Is he one of the animators of Astroboy 2003?

i personally believe the 60's cartoon is the best. only because its the first and best. also, its originally created by tezuka himself. unless the 80's one was too

Circular reasoning is when you cite as evidence your conclusion. Hence, "i personally believe the 60's cartoon is the best. only because its the first and best." OK, you probably did not want that type of response, but tough. See Constructing a Logical Argument & scroll down to Circulus in demonstrando

No! I didn't thought you would do that ! Just when reading it I thought "This is a work for Jeffbert", and what do I see in the following post?

And just think I live in Europe. Here it is already a miracle just to have the episodes in English illegally through the Internet They don't like Astro because he doesn't grab enough money :angry: And I suspect Astro can't grab enough money because he is not published enough

Personally, from a design perspective, I kinda like the 1970s time traveling Armour Astroboy from 4th Grader magazine. It's a shame they didn't continue that series. It could've been interesting.

It would be nice if they did a new version of that armour in the new show.

You're also forgetting about Astro mk.II. He was a major league slimeball, but he was funny as hell.

There were all sorts of Astroboys, come to think of it.

Ambassador Atom, Omega Factor Astro(I guess he counts as a different character since the game is in a different continuity), Astro Badboy(I think that was his name) from "Bad guy robots", Astroman, Astrotoy(that little thing created by Dr.Foola),Human Astro(from Dr.Blackjack), the Astrobabies(From I am Knowall),Buzzcut Astroboy & let's not forget all those riddiculous bargain basement Astroboys created by Mk.II.

These episodes draw their plot from the manga, & follow it very closely. It is in Volume 19.
