The Ghost In The Shell : 1 Deluxe Edition
Hardback Edition: 1
This is a definitive new edition supervised by creator Shirow Masamune. It is in the original, right-to-left format with Japanese sound effects for the first time! Following World Wars III and IV a Japanese-led Asian block dominates the world. A key element in the maintenance
