Astro Boy, also known as Tetsuwan Atomu in Japanese, is a beloved character in anime and manga. Created by Osamu Tezuka in the 1950s, Astro Boy tells the story of a robot with incredible powers who fights for justice and peace. He is an iconic figure in Japanese popular culture and has inspired many artists around the world, including those in the graffiti art and pop art scenes. In graffiti art, Astro Boy is a popular subject for murals and street art. The character's futuristic and robotic appearance lends itself well to the urban environment, and artists can play with the contrast between the character's bright colors and the gritty backdrop of the city. Graffiti artists often depict Astro Boy in action, showcasing his incredible powers and heroic nature.
