Review:Akira, the title character, is central to this volume. Initially, he appears to be an asset that everyone wants, but the long-hinted at power of Akira is slowly awakened as the story progresses.
The awakening of Akira changes the whole nature of the story. Both in the content and in the illustrations, you can see that a very large change has come to the world, and that things won't be the same again.
And speaking of the illustrations: the sheer scope of the story is well captivated by Ka... Read more
Review:I bought this book since I read the content online and wanted to own the series myself. I'm a big fan of the story and how well developed the characters are, however, I've read past the first volume so my review will reflect that. Read more
Review:The books came all together as I ordered, a couple days late than what Amazon said, but they still made it nonetheless! The only issue I had with the book (as seen in all three of them) was some sort of ink smudge, where it looked like some ink transferred over to the other pages. There were a lot of pages in each of the looks that made it look like it had dirt on the paper, but I could still read and enjoy it just fine! Read more
Review:This book keeps up the momentum from the first, while also letting us learn more about Anita. Who she is, what her values are, what that means, etc. We also see the dark side of her job as an animator. It really helps set a solid stage for future character development on her part. It's a good second chapter to this incredible series. Read more
Review:I really enjoyed reading this book. Unexpectedly well written for a guy known primarily for five minute video reviews of games. All of the wit, cynicism, and satire of said reviews are present; however, it is quite a bit less vulgar (for better or worse, depending on your taste). Read more
Review:Seller is great, very fast shipping, I got the book in just a couple od days.
I recommend this store.
The book is amazing, hardcovered with a lot of illustrations and comes very cheap.
Good collectable for Witcher fans. Read more
Review:Contains storyboards, thumbnails, silhouettes, armor/character designs, color keys... it's a thoroughly complete art book. Highly recommend. It has exceptional process and pre-production work. If you know how thick Mass Effect's concept art book (which includes all 3 Mass Effect games), this book is thicker. About twice the size as the Diablo 3 art book. Read more
Review:After watching the special features on Kick-Ass, I knew I wanted to read the comic, that went from comic to screen play so fast, as in before the comic was complete (3/8 of the way). As dark as the movie is... the comic is darker.
I am a fan of both the movie and the book, They were different. And it was interesting to see what they changed from the comic. (red mist is just one example) Read more

Review:Harley is now apparently the DC female Deadpool... and I'm perfectly okay with that.
The art is solid. I'm a bit disappointed that Amanda Conner only did the covers, but the regular artist are good and of course the writing hilarious. Read more
