Black Jack is a mysterious and charismatic young genius surgeon who travels the world performing amazing and impossible medical feats. Though a trained physician, he refuses to accept a medical license due to his hatred and mistrust of the medical community's hypocrisy and corruption. This leads Black Jack to occasional run-ins with the authorities, as well as from gangsters and criminals who approach him for illegal operations.
Black Jack charges exorbitant fees for his services, the proceeds from which he uses to fund environmental projects and to aid victims of crime and corrupt capitalists. But because Black Jack keeps his true motives secret, his ethics are perceived as questionable and he is considered a selfish, uncaring devil. The Black Jack series is told in short stories. Each volume will contain 16-20 stories, each running approximately 20-24 pages in length.
Black Jack is recognized as Osamu Tezuka's third most famous series, after Astro Boy and Kimba, the White Lion.

reviewed Black Jack, Volume 5 on October 29, 2010 Black Jack, Volume 5
If you haven't been following along in the series then you can rest assured that you won't miss too much if you haven't read anything previously. That's not to say that you shouldn't run out & pick up the previous volumes- they're excellent- but the series' setup of one-off chapters makes it easy for new readers to jump in at almost any point.
This volume collects all sort of different stories, from trying to save Kiriko's father to working on a celebrity. The stories are as varied as you could get without getting off the subject at hand.
Like I said in a previous review- some of the feats in this series are pretty unbelievable & just as many are almost impossible. Even so, the excellent Tezuka story telling will entrance even the most reluctant reader.
