Astro Boy Page #4

Strangish, how?

- He's brilliant!

As Toby was,

but different.

Well, you can't expect him

to be a carbon copy.

Give time for him, Tenma!

- You don't understand!

He was made to replace Toby!

But everytime I look at him...

...it just reminds me

that Toby is gone!

He's never coming back.

What's different?

I haven't seen dad

angry before.

Look at the haircut

on that one!

It's like he got horns!

- Horns? Good one!

What you mean, horns?

It's gel.

Wait!

I can understand you?

- Wow, that's creepy!

What is?

- Looks like he can understand us!

Don't be a dummy.

- I can hear what you're saying.

It is as if he can hear

what we're saying.

There's no way!

He is a human!

Come on, let's go and clean

some statues.

Okey-dokey!

How can I understand

what you're saying?

You are robots!

- You don't want any trouble.

Wait up! I just wanna know

what's going on?

What's happening to me?

Okay, guys.

Let's back up,

very carefully.

Oh, no!

Do not go so fast!

We're coming!

That's weirdy for me!

Wait, this steak is undercooked.

This is so cool!

I gotta show dad.

How can my approval ratings

be this low?

I was very popular

in high school.

I've cut taxes for a lot of

very influential friends.

What more do you people want!?

We're tracking an

unidentified object...

...flying over Metro City, sir!

The surface fellas are firing at us?

Oh, this is what

I've been waiting for.

Declare war on them.

This is gonna get me re-elected!

This didn't come from the surface, sir!

- Then, it's my opponent.

He's taking the golves off,

he's playing hardball.

It's blue core energy, sir!

- What?

Elefun, told me that

the blue core was destroyed.

Give me a location,

alert all units.

I must have that thing now!

I got here as fast as I could.

Where is he?

Where's Toby?

- I sent him to his room.

Please, just deactivate him

and take him away!

I can't bare

to see his face again.

Come on, Tenma!

You can't just throw him away

like a piece of junk.

Dad?

What's going on?

Why you're talking about me

like this?

Toby, there's been

a bit of a misunderstanding.

You are not actually,

an entirely ordinary boy.

I know!

Dad, I can fly!

I can drill my way through solid rock,

it's amazing!

How did I think,

this could work?

What's wrong with me?

Why don't you love me anymore?

He's programmed with the memories

of your own son, Tenma!

Programmed?

- Doesn't that mean anything to you?

But he isn't my son.

Dad!

I'm... I'm not your dad.

You're not Toby.

You are a copy of Toby.

Not my son, a robot!

And... and I...

...don't want you...

...anymore!

- No! No!

Toby, wait!

I can't see into the future,

but I'm sure...

...there's a place for you,
