Lost World Shikaban

A manga created by Osamu Tezuka during his middle school years in the early 1940s, this work predates his professionally published versions of Lost World. The series was initially made available in three limited edition hardcover volumes by Meichokan Kyoukai on February 28, 1982. It later saw wider distribution through Kodansha, which released it in two volumes as part of the Tezuka Osamu Manga Zenshuu collection between December 14, 1994, and January 17, 1995.
