After paying money I will never get back for the disappointment that is 2017’s Ghost in the Shell, I realized that it hadn’t scratched my itch for a Tokyo-set sci-fi tech opera.
Tokyo Ghost hits a lot of the same themes that Ghost in the Shell nods toward, but with a more fleshed-out world and characters better suited to explore it.
But while its setting contained infinite storytelling possibilities, Ghost in the Shell tapped into few of them.
It’s a current sci-fi comic about how technology changes what it means to be human by Rick Remender and Sean Murphy.
