Very interesting graphical novel set in Takeshi Kovacs' universe.

Story wise this is standard Takeshi :) Put to jail because of disorderly behavior Takeshi gets called to get information from only murder witness (maybe better said only person found in vicinity of murder location).

From here story just explodes. We follow Kovacs getting more and more involved (and finally getting sponsor to execute his private vengeance) in fighting through government/protectorate conspiracy, shadowy special operation teams, genocide aftermath and very advanced AI that just wants Kovacs out of the way.

On the art side it is a little bit mixed case here. Some parts are OK but some parts look like exaggerated putty constructions (you know bulgy cheekbones, head shape weird depending on perspective etc). So anatomy-wise sometimes you will see weird things depending on the perspective and body position. Artist's style might put some people off but I have no problem with it. I think it captures the characters and story itself very fine indeed and those few weird panels did not ruin anything for me.

Recommended to all fans of Takeshi Kovac, cyberpunk, noir and SF in general.

Hi good but independence novel of the altered Carbon universe. Does involve Takeshi Kovacs and is in general very readable and if you know about receiving not difficult to follow. I enjoyed it. I would say that the plot is fast moving yet well containing after a single graphic novel. I’d certainly look out for others, but I’m not sure I can make it a priority.

The setting for this comic is set after the events of the book Altered Carbon but the reader doesn’t need to have read the book or watched the series on Netflix to understand what is going on in the comic. The far future allows people to send their conscious across the stars and house them in clone bodies. Takeshi Kovacs is brought by the cops to use his info about being a former Protectorate soldier, he is only doing it in order to have his assault charges dropped from a bar fight. Things go south quickly, and he is drawn into solving to mystery. A good intro to this story universe and now I want to read more.… (mais)

A graphic novel tying-in to Morgan's Takeshi Kovacs series. It's a decent story, but the art looks a little dated--not bad, but very 90s cyberpunk.

Received via NetGalley.
