I've recently gotten addicted to reading Osamu Tezuka's "Black Jack".
I feel kind of alone in my fandom, however.....
Are there any other fans of the series out there?

I love it! It's such a fun manga, and he's the most badass doctor in fiction!
I admit that I'd love to see a House/Black Jack cross over fanfic. When I bought a copy from a Vertical booth at NY comic con last year, I mentioned Black Jack's simularity with House, and the rep mentioned that House writers were aware of the simularity, and even put some Black Jack homages into the show! I'd love to figure out what they are, assuming that's true.
What's your opinion on Pinoko? I think she's cute as a daughter figure and "softening agent" on Black Jack, but I find her completely annoying when she insists "I'm the wife!" And has a jealous temper tantrum.

Like I've said before, Black Jack is like a mixture of House, anime, and the Twilight Zone all rolled into one!
Pinoko CAN be a bit annoying (especially in the anime), but you've gotta admit.....she's the cutest thing to be created out of a tumor, in the entire history of creating things out of tumors....

You should never feel alone on Black Jack. Black Jack is a brilliant series from only "The God of Manga," Osamu Tezuka. I love Black Jack!
I have every English, Japanese, and Vietnamese volume.

I tried to get the hard cover through Diamond / Previews, but it's one of a number of manga that my shop back home just didn't get in. Might pick it up at this comic store I like in town that has a great manga selection. When i get some extra cash and space to read that is.
