Doctor Thrill (スリル博士, Suriru Hakase) is a manga series written and illustrated by Osamu Tezuka, published in Shogakukan's Weekly Shōnen Sunday from April 5, 1959, to September 6 of the same year.
Dr. Thrill and his son Kenta are mystery aficionados who work as amateur detectives. Tezuka started writing stand alone chapters but, at the request of his editors, he later transformed Dr. Trill into a serial mystery.
In the Sankei Newspaper Astroboy manga series, Astro travels back in time to 1969 & meets Shunsaku Ban's father, a doctor who runs the "Thrill Clinic". Jip the dog also makes a brief cameo appearance in the Astroboy story Plant People.
