Product Description

Synopsis
Set off by the bullet of a would-be assassin, Neo-Tokyo has been leveled by Akira's godlike psychic fury. Now cut off from the rest of world, the Great Tokyo Empire rises, with Akira its king, Tetsuo its mad prime minister, and a growing army of fanatic acolytes. Forces on the outside still search for a way to stop Akira, and the answer may lie in the hands of the mysterious Lady Miyako, a powerful member of Akira's psychic brotherhood. But the solution to harnessing Akira may ultimately be more dangerous than Akira himself!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding peice of comic work.Probally the best., 5 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Amazing.The story while spread out allways keeps up the pace and the excelent characterisation while following the totally engrosing plot lines.
Here neo tokyo is in ruins and the survivors decide to create a new way of living while the key players all search the truth behind Akira.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the best, 24 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This book is great, in my opinion I like these books better than the film. The darker themes and the dark side of Tokyo that aren't seen in most graphic novels come fully to light and are depicted in a fantastic load of art work! Certainly one of the best!
