Yes, you are correct Jeffbert, Those two episodes were Christmas episodes. Unfortunately, they were not dubbed into English, so their accessibility is limited for some. Although one can get an idea of the "Robio & Robiette" episode as it was remade for the 1980s anime.--Astrobuddy I :h...

Yes! Both the original Japanese reprints (that is any thing other than the original Shonen manga and the DH series based on the Japanese manga reprint series).--Astrobuddy

Okay I only own 11/64 & 3/65, 4/65 & 5/65! I have noticed that the versions in the reprint series were edited and are different from the original versions. I'm sure this will make for interesting reading in your book.--Astrobuddy I :heart: :astro: :) ; "Go, Go, Go!"; "Catch th...

Wishing all my astrobuddies a happy 2021 and a happy birthday to Uran. (At least in the 1980s series she is presened to Astro Boy's family by

Actress Dawn Wells famous for having portrayed Mary Ann Summers on the classic hit sitcom, "Gilligan's Island" has passed away! She was 82 and died of Covid 19 related complications. I met her briefly at a convention and she was very sweet. She will be missed. R.I.P. Dawn Wells!--Astrobudd...

I'm a little bit younger, (64 going on 65, to paraphrase "The Sound of Music!"), but I also was there when the episodes were first broadcast in the US, and I enjoy them now as well! While I remembered bits and pieces of shows. (especially the ending of "The Strange Voyage!") the ...

Yes, those alerts are great! I was missing issue 4/65 which has the second part of "Earth Defense Squadron" (aka "The Moon Monsters!"). I received an alert from Mandarake and within four days received the item. Hang in there Jeffbert. Soon who knows you will have all 28 issues an...
