Older works like Lost City and Astro Boy are just fun (boy's adventure stories,and not much else, although still historically important), and stuff like Phoenix and Black Jack is darker and weirder and more ambitious, but less mindfuckish than MW and Apollo's Song and Ode to Kirihito, and Adolf. Dear god, what an upsetting story that was.
And then there's Buddha, which I think I am even more in love with as time passes, even though I only read it once. It's just still percolating through my skull.
