I never the less believe Black Jack’s individual stories are really strong. convince non-believers or the episodic format or people who just don’t like episodic stuff in general that they’d like it given that the stories really don’t connect to one another aside from maybe a few callbacks. While I don’t think Black Jack does anything at all to maybe It’s an episodic series with self contained stories that don’t really reference each other too much. Probably gonna be some spoilers, just a heads up.īlack Jack doesn’t really have any sort of narrative. I really don’t know where else to take this intro so I guess we’ll get started. Written & illustrated by the one & only Osamu Tezuka, it ran from 1973 to 1983 & was one of his most successful works as it was running & then became one of his most recognizable overtime.
