Girl in #7 looks like something I’d do….
Gotta love some of these vintage Tezuka characters. I recognize Tetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy), Jungle Taitei (Kimba the White Lion), Blackjack, some adaptation of Journey to the West, and a surprise appearance from Tezuka’s ridiculously epic Phoenix. Seriously, look that one up.
Don’t know any of the others, though.
Is it just me, or is it particularly ironic that he has his Phoenix (aka firebird) preaching at her chicks about fire safety?
