Superhero? No, I don't think there's really any way to call Toppei a superhero. A young man with an unfortunate problem, certainly, but he doesn't go out and fight crime in the night or anything. Technically he's trying to follow his dream of becoming a Mangaka, until a certain villain gets in the way. It's a great story
Self-loathing and Goth poetry, that you don't have to worry about.
As for you, strobe, time to face up to volume 3, it's a Tezuka buff must. The reincarnation stuff he does in there is like a mini-handbook for how to understand Phoenix.
