Search and Destroy Vol. 3

Manga creator Atsushi Kaneko (EVOL, Bambi and Her Pink Gun) concludes his cyberpunk retelling of the timeless, Eisner Award-winning Dororo by "God of Manga" Osamu Tezuka (Astro Boy, Buddha).

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The broken and discarded creatures of the city have had enough of the caste system that keeps them servile, and they rise up to strike. Doro the little thief must confront their past and make impossible decisions about their future. And Hyaku? Hyaku's quest to retrieve the stolen pieces of her body is nearly at an end, and her path of righteous and bloody vengeance leads directly to the great betrayer, her father. Robots, humans, creatures, monsters: no one will survive unscathed.

Final conflicts rage in this spectacular conclusion to Atsushi Kaneko's epic cyberpunk masterpiece! Featuring stunning and visceral artwork and a story that is startlingly relevant to today's audiences, deeply intertwined with the work of Osamu Tezuka's classic samurai manga masterpiece, Dororo.

Bambi has also been published in English and Soil has been adapted into a television drama series. Osamu Tezuka (1928 - 1989) was a Japanese manga artist, cartoonist, and animator. His prolific output, pioneering techniques, and innovations in genre storytelling earned him such titles as "the Father of Manga," "the Godfather of Manga," and "the God of Manga." Ben Applegate has been working in English-language manga since 2007 as a translator, editor, and publishing professional. In his capacity as director of publishing services at Penguin Random House Publisher Services, he has managed publishing and editorial work for the Kodansha print manga program since 2015.
