Walt Disney.
Astroboy was a Pinocchio's ripoff
Leo Hill
Mutt comics are all about capeshit
Thomas Anderson
Walt Disney and Tex Avery
Brody Brown
thing used to be simple and require high labor to achieve something in the past, but finding this kind of person who did that kind of thing in this century is hardly found especially in the west
Brody Wright
Tezuka himself
Henry Cook
Frani Miller.
Matthew Jenkins
Jack Kirby
Carl Barks
Daniel Green
Anyone saying any thing other than carl barks is a retard
Tyler Anderson
>rip off of a story that is literally hundreds of years old
Sebastian Bailey
Me.
Kayden Taylor
But Walt Disney actually progressed the field of animation. Tezuka actively held it back.
Hunter Peterson
tezuka is a mangaka. not really an animator.
Logan Sanders
How so did Tezuka hold it back?
Connor James
Will Eisner
Sebastian Young
Yes.
In North America comics: Jack Kirby
In European Comics: Herge
In American Animation: Walk Disney
Jonathan Lee
He's not white.
Noah Torres
European but in Europe the Goscinny/Uderzo duo and Herge
Oliver Gray
watch anything he animated. He's half the reason Japanese animation is so stiff and rigid even in feature film
Jaxson Phillips
He just was doing it cheap for the TV stations to actually buy his shows.
Look at Hanna Barbera. They did the same for the TV shows before they were confident enough to outsource the animation. Their Tom and Jerry MGM theatricals were nicely animated, so they could do it with enough budget.
Justin King
This, look at the anirama films he's done back in the early 70s
Isaiah Butler
This. He had a main creation that he will be remembered mostly for (The Spirit to Astro Boy) but would then experiment in terms of content and form within the comic medium with other graphic novels. The only mismatch is that I think Will Eisner never dabbled with Animation unlike Tezuka.
Levi Sanders
Sorry, I meant Not Western.
Hunter Jones

Carl Barks is a legend but Kirby is a better comparison because both Tezuka and Kirby created a ton of original characters and covered a variety of genres. Carl is on their level as an artist and a storyteller though.
Christian Wright
>amerimutts
John White
Gary Larson
HE was also a doctor.
Sebastian Gray
He's comparing to Barks because Tezuka was most directly inspired by (or some would say ripped off) Barks' work
Caleb Allen
he created the concept of Star System which was just an excuse for him to reuse his character designs how many times he wanted, that's why modern anime is so full of sameface syndrome
Jackson Roberts
the west is full of furfags so it's hard to pick a single one
