Ghost in the Shell 2: Man-Machine Interface #3

Issue three of Masamune Shirow's Ghost in the Shell 2: Man-Machine Interface presents a striking cover — a sleek, silver-suited cyborg woman with auburn hair poses dynamically against a dense backdrop of holographic interface rings, data readouts, and glowing circuitry, while a second figure in orange engages in action in the lower left corner. Shirow's meticulous linework and vibrant coloring turn the cover itself into a fully realized vision of a world where human and machine have thoroughly merged. Part of Dark Horse's eleven-issue run, this 2003 series continues to showcase Shirow at the height of his artistic ambition.
