(comment) Metropolis, a highly popular work from Tezuka's early science fiction trilogy, was first published in 1949 by Fuji Shobou. This particular version was published four years later in 1953 by Toho Manga. During this period, Fuji Shobou was on the verge of dissolution, and the publishing situation was chaotic, with several Fuji-original titles being reissued by various publishers such as Mitama Shobo and Tsuru Shobou. The Toho version features a completely different cover page and binding from the boxed Fuji version, giving it a different kind of charm. The copy presented here is a rare one with cover and in excellent condition(Kubo).
