“There’s got to be a pair of pants around here somewhere!”
Astro Boy The Movie Official Movie Adaptation #1
IDW Publishing (August, 2009)
SCREENPLAY: Timothy Hyde Harris & David Bowers ADAPTATION: Scott & David Tipton ARTIST: E.J. Su COLORIST: Tom Smith LETTERER: Neil Uyetake EDITOR: Tom WaltzThis is a four-part adaptation of the CG movie by Imagi Studios. Longtime BW readers may recall I reviewed the four-part IDW-produced prequel back when my comic reviews were weekly. Well, that’s hardly a prequel as the movie is a rebooted origin for Osamu Tenzaka’s “Mighty Atom” and the prequel doesn’t make any sense AS a prequel because of it.
I had held off on reviewing this comic until I saw the movie and then never had a chance to review, or even read, the comic, just coming across it recently. So I figure it’s long overdue. When there aren’t any new comics to review our bonus edition of “Yesterday’s” Comic will finally get this reviewed.
