If adding the 5 volumes of Conclusion GOD'S WAR completed in 2014, the manga has a total of 32 volumes and has taken 50 years to complete. The manga stands at a total of 27 volumes in its most recent re-release by Kadokawa Shoten. This arc is an updating of the earlier and unfinished 'Angel' and 'Battle with the Gods' storylines that were both intended to serve the same purpose as the cyborgs' longest and final battle. However, the ending of the manga was eventually delivered in Cyborg 009: Conclusion GOD'S WAR, based on some of Ishinomori's concept ideas and drafts for a final arc that he had never had the chance to write out.

The manga was ultimately unfinished due to Ishinomori's death in 1998. It is notable for its long and varied publication history, running through several magazines throughout its run, as well as detailing the effects of war and the relationships between people of different races. It was his first major success, with it introducing manga's first super-powered team. It was first published on July 19, 1964, and concluded regular serialization in 1981, with a brief further serialization occurring in 1985. Cyborg 009 is a manga series by Shotaro Ishinomori.
