He grew up in a liberal family exposed to manga and Walt Disney. As a boy he also had a love for insects; as a grown-up he would incorporate the ideogram for \"insect\" into his pen name. Having developed an intense understanding of the preciousness of life from his wartime experience, Osamu Tezuka aimed to become a physician and later earned his license, but ultimately chose the profession he loved best: manga artist and animated film writer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vertical Comics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44380556001419,"sku":"9781935654322","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/5100\/7115\/files\/img_9f3c38f9-e76e-40de-8cf6-1bcdae993b5f.jpg?v=1760546583","url":"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/products\/dororo-omnibus-edition-9781935654322","provider":"CA Corrections Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
