OLD CITY BLUES GN VOL 02

(W/A) Giannis Milonogiannis

 The next chapter in the critically acclaimed Old City Blues series! The year is 2048. Southeastern Europe. Built on the ruins of the country once known as Greece, New Athens is a city crawling with life-low-life that is. From mech smugglers and drug dealers, to corrupt politicians and all-too-powerful corporations, the city is at the mercy of high-tech criminals. And it's up to Solano, Thermidor, and the rest of the New Athens Special Police to keep the city in order. This edition collects "Private Enemy" and the brand-new "Prothetic Corpus" story arcs.

The current king of cyberpunk comix, Giannis Milonogiannis returns with the second installment of his scratchy, dirty, rain drenched world of Old City Blues featuring Solano and the New Athens Special Police!! You might be asking why the hell it's taken so long for a second volume, but Giannis has been cutting his teeth on the hard core sci-fi epic that is Prophet for Image and the fruits of his labors are evident on every page of Vol 2. So grab your decks and jack into the next level of cyberpunk!!

ZANADU RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 2/13/13

KNIGHTS OF SIDONIA TP VOL 01

(W/A) Tsutomu Nihei

One of the manga world's most intriguing artists returns with a science-fiction tour de force which combines post-apocalyptic action, modern sci-fi video game tropes, and a traditional Japanese aesthetic. In his follow-up from the hit Biomega series, Tsutomu Nihei tackles the world of hard science-fiction by creating a modern space comedy inspired by the genre's hits from his youth.

Former architect turned crazy bad ass manga-ka, Tsutomu Nihei crafts biotech worlds of cybernetic apocalypse filled with hook handed soviet bears, techplague corporate zombies and motorcycles that put Kaneda's to shame, all blanketed in a bleak greyness of the all to real near future. A true visionary, both of Nihei's previous works, Blame! and Biomega, stand as pinnacles of not only hardcore Sci-Fi, but cyberpunk, bio-punk and any other edgy adjective placed here-punk. We can only thank our good fortune that he had the insight to realize architecture was clearly not as important as making stupid funny books for less money. RECOMMENDED BY CASEY!!!!!!!
