3rd Edition - Volume 3 - 1st printing. "The Scales of Prometheus!" Collects Appleseed: Book 3 (1989) #1-5. Story and art by Masamune Shirow. Translated by Dana Lewis and Toren Smith. Life seems ideal within the utopian confines of Olympus, a shining beacon in a post-World War III wasteland, but perfection is always an illusion. Stalking the ruins of New York City is Artemis, a renegade, flesh-eating bioroid (enhanced artificial human) carrying data critical to the future of Olympus, and the elite ESWAT is sent in to tranq her and bring her back to Olympus. But when Artemis recovers during transit, the powerful combat bioroid brings down the transport ship and escapes into Olympus. ESWAT agents Deunan and Briareos are dispatched to bring in the feral Artemis, but will they emerge as heroes . . . or lunch? Shirow is well-known and critically acclaimed internationally, and is responsible for numerous classic anime/manga titles, such as Appleseed, Dominion, Ghost in the Shell, Orion, and Black Magic. Softcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 214 pages, B&W. NOTE: These are Japanese manga-style GNs and are meant to be read right-to-left.
