From one of the manga world’s most intriguing artists comes the manga version of the Netflix movie, BLAME!Steel and rust. The City structure has endlessly propagated itself for so many years that the reason for such growth has long since been forgotten. Even within such a techno-dystopia, humans still exist: The Electrofishers. Driven to the brink of extinction, they are visited by a traveler—a man named Killy. But will his presence bring the Electrofishers ruination or hope…?“The focus on a smaller story in the much larger manga narrative definitely works here. By treating Killy as a supporting character that wanders The City, it means that the human story of the Electro-Fishers is brought to the forefront and gives much needed context for Killy’s quest.” —Forbes
