Great manga but...

The summary lied seeing as Tezuka Osamu died back in 1989. I mean I'm not saying anything bad since he was my favorite manga-ka, no just the summary upset me is all. I wish they band together. But that is just wishful thinking. I'm no necromancer.

The reason why he gets credit is because the one who is actually doing the manga is using alot of his things.

OMG!

Sorry this is just a waste of good space.

Tezuka Osamu made Tetsuwan Atomu (Astro Boy), the series where Pluto is based off.
Pluto is based around the "the greatest robot on earth" arc of Tetsuwan Atomu and is named after the villain Pluto.

Sadly, there are no releases after Chapter 55 since Viz Media licensed it; and they dont sell around here =/

This manga is really nice to read but the view count doesn't justify it at all! Perhaps the summary has something to do with it!

It's not a lie.
They didn't collaborate directly, but its a collaboration nonetheless. Pluto is adapted by Naoki Urasawa from a story written by Osamu Tezuka. If they didn't give credit to Tezuka by calling the manga a collaboration, then they'd just be stealing.

I think you're just confused by the terminology. When they said "two great Japanese artists come together" they don't mean literally. They just mean that this manga is a combined effort of Naoki Urasawa's writing and artwork and Osamu Tezuka's original characters and premise.
