Now a major motion picture!
March 6, 2035. Motoko Aramaki is a hyper-advanced cyborg, a
counter-terrorist Net security expert, heading the investigative
department of the giant multi-national Poseidon Industrial. Partly
transcending the physical world and existing in a virtual world of
networks, Motoko is a fusion of multiple entities and identities,
deploying remotely controlled prosthetic humanoid surrogates around the
globe to investigate a series of bizarre incidents. Meanwhile, Tamaki
Tamai, a psychic detective from the Channeling Agency, has been
commissioned to explore strange changes in the temporal universe brought
about by two forces, one represented by the teachings of a professor
named Rahampol, the other by the complex, evolving Motoko entity. What
unfolds will all be in a day's work--a day that will change everything,
forever.
The long-awaited sequel to Shirow Masamune's groundbreaking The
Ghost in the Shell, and one of the most highly anticipated graphic
novel events in many years, Man-Machine Interface is Shirow's most
ambitious and complex story yet, with deep forays into philosophy and
the meaning of artificial life, intelligence, and existence. Utilizing
awe-inspiring digital effects on a level never before seen in the annals
of graphic fiction, Shirow has raised the bar for what can be achieved,
page after page!
