Pluto: Naoki Urasawa's Dark Reimagining of Astro Boy

Pluto is one of Naoki Urasawa's lesser known works, but arguably one of his most notable at the same time. Based on Tezuka Osamu's Astro Boy, Urasawa's dark take on one of the world's most beloved childhood heroes is both interesting and thought-provoking. Join me as I try to understand Pluto, which has joined the ranks of Monster and 20th Century Boys for me as one of my favorite manga ever.
