Description:
Considered by many to be one of the finest works of Japanese comics art ever produced,​ Phoenix: A Tale of the Future is a rollicking space-age adventure,​ an apocalyptic cautionary tale,​ a fable of human frailty and triumph,​ and a fantastic voyage through time,​ space,​ and the macroverse.​

Above all it is a great love story,​ an epic account of Class II Space Patrolman Masato's tragic,​ undying love for the doomed beautiful alien "moopie" Tamami.​ Told in bold layouts and mindwarping page designs that revolutionized Japanese comics,​ this is the work of the greatest manga artist of them all,​ Osamu Tezuka,​ soaring at the height of his powers.​
