===Manga=== {{seealso|List of Cyborg 009 chapters}} The first series was serialized in ''Weekly Shōnen King'' ([[Shōnen Gahosha]]). It depicts Cyborg 009's origin story, the escape from Black Ghost, and the group running from the cyborg assassins. It ended with the battle against the [[Mythos]] Cyborgs. The second series, called ''The Underground Empire Yomi Arc'', appeared in ''[[Weekly Shōnen Magazine]]'' ([[Kodansha]]) alongside the release of the film version. The story is highly influenced by [[Edgar Rice Burroughs]]' [[At the Earth's Core (novel)|''Earth's Core'' series]], including an expedition to the center of the Earth with a drill tank and a reptile race who can use telepathy and grow wings. The story ends with the final battle against Black Ghost. In the final scene, 009 and 002 fall into Earth's atmosphere and are seen as a shooting star by two small children, one of whom wishes for a toy gun and the other for world peace (a scene reminiscent of [[Ray Bradbury]]'s ''[[The Illustrated Man|Kaleidoscope]]''). As such, 001 was able to use his telekinetic powers at the last minute to retrieve 002 and 009 from their plummet before death. The third series, serialized in ''[[Bōken Ō]]'' ([[Akita Shoten]]), contained 6 story arcs, including the Monster Island Arc, the Middle East Arc, and the Angels Arc. The series abruptly ended during the Angels Arc. The fourth series, called ''The Battle of the Gods'', was serialized in ''[[COM (manga magazine)|COM]]'' ([[Mushi Production]]). Ishinomori resumed and retold the interrupted Angels Arc with a new plot, but the series once again ended abruptly. Ishinomori would not resume the series for a few years after this. The fifth series was serialized in ''[[Shōjo Comic]]'' ([[Shogakukan]]), and included the ''Wind City Arc'', the ''Snow Carnival Arc'', and the ''Edda Arc''. The story deals with legendary and mythical like characters challenging the 00 Number Cyborgs. The sixth series followed closely after the fifth series. Arcs such as the ''[[Deinonychus]] Arc'' (appeared in ''[[Monthly Shōnen Jump]]'' ([[Shueisha]])) and ''Green Hole Arc'' (appeared in ''Play Comic'' ([[Akita Shoten]])) were depicted, then long after, the ''Underwater Pyramid Arc'' was serialized in ''Monthly Manga Shōnen'' ([[Asahi Sonorama]]). The seventh series was serialized in ''[[Weekly Shōnen Sunday]]'' ([[Shogakukan]]) alongside the revival anime. A long arc consisting of many short arcs, this series dealt with the battle against Neo Black Ghost as well as the emotional trauma of the 00 Number Cyborgs. The story is set approximately 20 years after the ''Yomi Arc'', and the personalities and conduct of the cyborgs are depicted as more adult. The eighth series was serialized in ''Monthly Comic Nora'' ([[Gakken]]). This longer arc was called ''People Drifting Through Time and Space Arc'', and is a sequel to the ''Immigration Arc''. The [[Count of St. Germain]] from the Underwater Pyramid Arc appears, but the design of his drawing is different. ====Manga publication history==== The series was written and illustrated by [[Shotaro Ishinomori]], serialized in ''Monthly Shōnen King'', published in Japan by [[Akita Shoten]] and other companies through its history, and published in North America by [[Tokyopop]].
