IN A DEVASTATED 21ST CENTURY, Neo-Tokyo, the armed might of
Earth is massed against the godlike powers of two psychic titans,
the mute child Akira and the deranged youth Tetsuo. While Akira has
unintentionally destoryed the city twice before, Tetsuo has ravaged
the surface of the Moon for his sheer amusement, and his madness
grows as his abilities expand. But he is gradually losing control
of the limitless energies that rage within him, mutating Tetsuo
into a horror beyond imagination, and as all forces converge for a
final confrontation, the fate of the planet lies in the hands of
mere mortals...and the mind of a child.
This final chapter of Katsuhiro Otomo's internationally honored
graphic-novel masterpiece brings to a shattering, mind-warping
conclusion the science-fiction epic that has influenced
storytellers from every continent and in every medium. "Akira" is a
one-of-a-kind work of breathtaking scope, unforgettable imagery,
and singular vision.
