"Black Jack is a dramatic, nearly Byronic figure...With genre-spanning stories--horror, sci-fi, romance--and Tezuka's signature blend of drama, pathos, and extremely broad comedy jammed together on every page, Black Jack is a wild but extravagently entertaining ride that's far more accessible than the author's novel-length epics." --Publishers Weekly

"2008-2009 Manga of the Year!" --The Manga Critic

"With his shock of white hair and rock-star demeanour, Black Jack transfers well to the manga version of the operating room. The book is peppered with enough knowledge to hint at Tezuka's fascination with the frailty of the human body. [I]t means he can avoid the clichés of most manga storylines." --The Guardian (U.K.)
