Most of his work is published by Viz in the USA. I read it in french, but that's besides the point 
His most famous work are the 20th Century Boys and Monster series.
I've recently aquired his Pluto series but have yet to open it.
Urasawa is a master of serialazing, often using mysterious characters and withwholding info for the longest time, building up expectations for years.
In 2004, he won the Angoulême International Comics Festival Prize for a Series (for 20th Century Boys), which is the equivalent of the Cannes Golden Palm in Cinema.
He also won the Eisner Award for Best U.S. Edition of International Material for 20th Century Boys in 2011 and for Pluto in 2013.
His most recent stuff I haven't gotten yet : Master Keaton and the very cool looking Billy Bat.
ANyone here into him? Anyone has read those later two?
