		<description><![CDATA[Looking at the current roster of superhero titles (or, at least, the ones I see here at Grovel) it’s easy to mourn the passing of titles for kids. When I was young, superhero comics were a rite of passage – a sign that you were moving on from the weedy humour comics based on the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s not unusual to find this in an ongoing series like Black Jack, but this second volume seems somehow deflated after the thrilling ride of the first. Where Volume 1 was a rollercoaster of discovery and revelation, Volume 2 is a comparatively sedentary selection of stories. What they do manage to do, however, is to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They call him the godfather of manga, and the more of Osamu Tezuka’s work that Vertical puts out, the more you can understand why. Black Jack is an epic 17-volume series that draws heavily on Tezuka&#8217;s surgical knowledge &#8211; he trained as a doctor before embarking on his career as a manga maestro.

		<description><![CDATA[UPDATE: Volume 3 out now Osamu Tezuka is back, albeit from beyond the grave, with a series that first saw publication in Japan in 1967. There&#8217;s little to date though &#8211; this is a timeless Japanese fantasy about a young man called Hyakkimaru, who embarks on a quest to fight a series of demons. Before [...]]]></description>

In this second volume, the scope broadens, as we see more of the world and get more of an insight into what it means [...]]]></description>

Perhaps you put yourself on the ground at the point of impact and imagine the immense heat and wind, vaporising people and buildings in its destructive path. What you might not be thinking about is the fate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like Will Eisner in the west, Osamu Tezuka is considered one of the founding fathers of the graphic novel. Ode to Kirihito is undoubtedly one of his masterpieces, standing alongside Buddha as an epic of Japanese graphic literature. The story revolves around Kirihito Osanai, a brilliant but rebellious young doctor, who&#8217;d have a bright future [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Japanese comic (or manga) has a great tradition of creating intelligent science fiction for grown-ups. Akira was one of the key titles that brought Japanese comics west and Eden can be seen as a direct ancestor. This first volume is a fine example of how the Japanese have taken elements of this genre and [...]]]></description>
