Pluto by Naoki Urasawa published since 2003. The series is based on Osamu Tezuka`s Astro Boy, specifically `The Greatest Robot on Earth` (地上最大のロボット) story arc, and named after the arc`s chief villain. Urasawa reinterprets the story as a suspenseful murder mystery starring Gesicht, a Europol robot detective trying to solve the case of a string of robot and human deaths.
Pluto follows the Europol robot detective Gesicht (German for face) in his attempts to solve the case of a string of robot and human deaths. The case becomes more puzzling when evidence suggest a robot is responsible for the murders, the first one in eight years.
Numerous references to other Osamu Tezuka works appear, such as Blackjack, and several Astro Boy characters appear in chief supporting roles.
