Fantagraphics for the win here, exploring the world of manga. Atsushi is an incredible mangaka you need to explore here.-- \"Gifted Rebels\" Review Quotes : A captivating work... This series would be great for fans of Naoki Ursawa's Pluto books or Tsutomu Nihei's Knights of Sidonia series.-- \"Booklist\" Review Quotes : Kaneko reimagines Tezuka's 1960s epic fantasy saga Dororo as a gritty, fast-paced cyberpunk thriller ... Kaneko retains Tezuka's relentless pacing, flair for melodrama, and thematic focus on justice, corruption, and individuality within an oppressive society, while integrating elements of body horror and an increased focus on the unsustainability of societies where vital resources are controlled by a thriving minority, to the detriment of the masses.-- \"Library Journal Starred Review\" Review Quotes : It's a blast of pure cyberpunk energy.-- \"Publishers Weekly Starred Review\" Review Quotes : Search and Destroy grabs you by the throat with its opening chapter and never lets go.-- \"Multiversity Comics\" Review Quotes : Richly imagined...-- \"The New York Times\" Review Quotes : Cyberpunk thrills with emotional weight and hauntingly weird visuals.-- \"AIPT Comics\" Review Quotes : Revels in the unhinged madness Kaneko has created.

It's a disturbingly prescient reinterpretation of a manga from pioneering writer Osamu Tezuka about humans harvesting robot parts.-- \"Book and Film Globe\" Publisher Marketing : Hyaku has been betrayed. A fearsome killer, her body more machine than flesh, she has learned the truth: Her human body parts were bartered away when she was a baby, and what remained was left for dead. Filled with incandescent rage, Hyaku embarks on a vengeful rampage to dismantle the monsters who took her apart and violently reclaim what she has lost. But as she replaces her cybernetic implants with the flesh and blood she has been denied, a new emotion sets in: fear. Fear that her human body will be too weak to finish what she started -- and fear of what she might learn next about her own past. Will her anger and ruthlessness be enough to propel her to the final showdown? Or will revelations about the depravity of her world consume her, along with everyone around her?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025-06-03\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fantagraphics Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46494751391875,"sku":"9798875000522","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/6830\/8099\/files\/9798875000522.jpg?v=1770350500","url":"https:\/\/sebink.com\/products\/9798875000522","provider":"Sebink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
