Tezuka Star System

The Tezuka Star System refers to the recurring characters featured in the works created by/related to legendary manga artist Osamu Tezuka. who frequently re-used the same characters in different roles across different series, alluding to the Hollywood practice of the star system, i.e. how some film directors work with the same actors across multiple movies. As Knights of the Multiverse uses many of Tezuka's characters, it subsequently uses this system, taking several characters and giving them different roles (something that actually applies to almost every character in KotM).
