The cyber-martial arts saga that has spanned a solar system and over two decades in print returns, with creator Yukito Kishiro's new sequel that reveals the true story of Alita's childhood on Mars, and the mind-bending adventures that still await her... The operation to track down Yoko is interrupted when Gyapollo launches an ambush in the night. A clever trap does some damage, but Keun knows a duel is inevitable, and that he must put everything on the line. Meanwhile, Yoko’s solo adventuring leads her to a monumental discovery—if only she understood its significance… When he was only seventeen, Yukito Kishiro was nominated for Japanese publisher Shogakukan's Best New Comic award. Creator of other popular manga titles, Kishiro is known for his strong characters, original settings, and intricate, lifelike artwork.
