    The Kids Talk The Ghost In The Shell PART TWO

    JJ leads an expedition to explore the question ... 'What is Ghost in the Shell all About Anyway?'. Angus is there to support the journey and provide contexual examples during this deep Comics Archeological dive into The Ghost In The Shell. In PART ONE they introduced the work, provided a Kirby Kernel, engaged in some Creative Chatter and took us on the first leg of the Comics Archeology journey. In PART TWO they complete the second leg of the journey and review the story arcs on the Literary Isle. MANGA MONTH - The Ghost in the Shell Vol. 1 ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Shell-Vol-1-ebook/dp/B01NA69LSR/⁠ Deep into the twenty-first century, the line between man and machine has been inexorably blurred as humans rely on the enhancement of mechanical implants and robots are upgraded with human tissue. In this rapidly converging landscape, cyborg superagent Major Motoko Kusanagi is charged to track down the craftiest and most dangerous terrorists and cybercriminals, including “ghost hackers” who are capable of exploiting the human/machine interface and reprogramming humans to become puppets to carry out the hackers’ criminal ends. When Major Kusanagi tracks the cybertrail of one such master hacker, the Puppeteer, her quest leads her into a world beyond information and technology where the very nature of consciousness and the human soul are turned upside down. From Shirow Masamune, the award-winning creator of Appleseed and Dominion, comes The Ghost in the Shell, the breakthrough manga that inspired the internationally acclaimed animated film. An epic dystopian tale of politics, technology, and metaphysics, The Ghost in the Shell has been hailed worldwide as an unparalleled visionary work of graphic fiction. And now it’s ready to dazzle the imagination in its second millennium.
