Black Jack, Vol. 1

Strange little stories about impossible surgeries and life lessons.

Black Jack was a serialized comic that gain cult status back in the 70s. These volumes are collections of the short, 20-ish, page stories that were published back then. The stories center around Black Jack, an unlicensed but brilliant surgeon who can perform miracle surgeries for the right price.

While he comes across as arrogant & greedy to his patients and other doctors he's actually quite the opposite, but I think his loner style likes to keep people away. The stories are a bit creepy, completely fantastical with a touch of realism to them. It was a great, fun read!
