Rage against hypocrisy, injustice, exploitation, and\u003cbr\u003e the wrongs done to a child who grew into a righteous killer.... Complete in\u003cbr\u003e three volumes, Search and Destroy transplants the vengeful action of Dororo\u003cbr\u003e from feudal Japan into a dystopian future where mercenary robots known\u003cbr\u003e as \"creatures\" serve the human elite and victimize the city's scrabbling,\u003cbr\u003e desperate masses. The violent death of one of these creatures connects an\u003cbr\u003e orphaned thief named Doro with a mysterious girl in a stinking animal hide\u003cbr\u003e that conceals deadly cybernetic implants. Who is this mysterious girl? How\u003cbr\u003e is she killing, one by one, the city's most twisted and powerful creatures?\u003cbr\u003e Originally serialized from 2019-2021 in the Japanese manga monthly\u003cbr\u003e TezuComi, Search and Destroy is a brilliantly-crafted thriller about an outsider\u003cbr\u003e looking for meaning and vengeance in the unjust world that took everything\u003cbr\u003e away from her. Kaneko populates a stunning, high-contrast setting that echoes\u003cbr\u003e postwar Cuba as much as Tokyo with an unforgettable cast of scrappy heroes and\u003cbr\u003e skin-crawling monsters on a nonstop ride full of action and suspense. This authorized\u003cbr\u003e retelling updates the rebellious '60s spirit of the original Dororo for the equally\u003cbr\u003e tumultuous 2020s, mixing Tezuka's signature dark yet playful storytelling sense\u003cbr\u003e with Kaneko's own wide range of influences, which include Western cartoonists\u003cbr\u003e like Daniel Clowes and Charles Burns as well as filmmakers like David Lynch. The\u003cbr\u003e result is not only one of the best sci-fi manga of recent years, but also one of the most\u003cbr\u003e visually rich and distinctive works of graphic storytelling in any genre or language.\u003cbr\u003e Atsushi Kaneko is a Japanese manga artist from Sakata, Yamagata Prefecture. His\u003cbr\u003e two books, Bambi and Her Pink Gun and Soil, have both been published in France.\u003cbr\u003e Bambi has also been published in English and Soil has been adapted into a television\u003cbr\u003e drama series. Osamu Tezuka (1928-1989) was a Japanese manga artist, cartoonist,\u003cbr\u003e and animator. His prolific output, pioneering techniques, and innovations in genre\u003cbr\u003e storytelling earned him such titles as \"the Father of Manga,\" \"the Godfather of Manga,\"\u003cbr\u003e and \"the God of Manga.\"","brand":"Fantagraphics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48255051727113,"sku":"9781683969327","price":16.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0403\/3514\/7159\/files\/search-and-destroy-tp-vol-01-741928.jpg?v=1723855698"},{"product_id":"search-and-destroy-vol-02","title":"Search And Destroy TP Vol 02","description":"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?Originally serialized from 2019–2021 in the Japanese manga monthly TezuComi, Search and Destroy is a brilliantly-crafted thriller about an outsider looking for meaning and vengeance in the unjust world that took everything away from her.
