4.0 out of 5 stars
Great for Shirow fans,
This review is from: Appleseed, Book 2: Prometheus Unbound (Paperback)
All the volumes in this series of releases are excellent. Just a straightforward repackaging of the manga in unflipped format, with all the great art intact. One small caveat for oldschool fans, the forrmat is much closer to the size of Japanese tankobon....so much, much smaller than the original DH graphic novel releases. The work does not suffer at all, the panels are minimally retouched. The sound effects are left intact, so as not to disturb Shirow's linework, and equivalents are run in the gutters in what has become standard for US manga translation. Fantastic revisiting of a scifi classic. Great replacement for my worn out originals... Highly recommended!
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Appleseed, Book 2: Prometheus Unbound (Paperback)
Masamune Shirow has inspired some of the most groundbreaking anime ever, but his original works offer quite a contrast in their healthy dose of humor. The events in this volume were brought to life in the 2005 CG film, a stunning and dark character driven feature. Shirow's art style is detailed and chaotically unhinged at the same time, I can't help but enjoy it and think you would too.
