Black Jack 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, leading Black Jack to occasional run-ins with the authorities, as well as from gangsters and criminals who approach him for illegal operations. He 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! This second volume reprints 20 more pages of stories of Osamu Tezuka's creation, Black Jack, and is a PREVIEWS Exclusive hardcover.
