Icaro

A MAJOR EVENT IN MANGA! NEVER BEFORE PUBLISHED IN ENGLISH THE STUNNING CONCLUSION OF A FULL-SCALE GRAPHIC NOVEL BY AWARD-WINNING MANGA MASTER JIRO TANIGUCHI AND COMICS SUPER-STAR MOEBIUS Icaro is a thrilling manga science fiction adventure in the tradition of Akira, Ghost in the Shell and Clamp's sf sagas. Icaro is the mind-bending, fast-paced adventure of a young man--Icaro--with the ability to fly and a young woman, Yukiko, who risks her life--and more--to help Icaro achieve his dream. Best of all, it capitalizes on Taniguchi's ability to depict a vast and oppressive advanced science laboratory that has made Icaro its guinea pig, and which will use all its resources to keep him imprisoned for study. Icaro's fight to be free, and Yukiko's sacrifice to aid him in his quest make this one of the most inspiring manga stories and one of the first significant original manga collaborations between East and West.Taniguchi, Jiro is the author of 'Icaro' with ISBN 9780743479806 and ISBN 0743479807.
