At San Francisco's Asian Art Museum, see the work of Tezuka Osamu
If you're still trying to demystify manga and anime, head to the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco on June 2 for a look at the work of the man the Japanese consider the god of comics, Tezuka Osamu. More than 200 original drawings, posters and other works — including his cartoons of Astro Boy and Kimba the White Lion, which appeared as TV cartoons in the 1960s — make up the first major exhibition of its kind outside of Japan. If you fall hard for the medium, pick up the illustrated catalog for $32.50 plus tax. Info: (415) 581-3500, www.asianart.org.
