This was so sick
I feel like i like the art of Blame! Better even though they are the same universe but this story is a bit more exciting and i love the bear

BLAME! is closer to my heart, especially as an entire work, since Biomega unfortunately gets the rushed ending treatment. However, I did like the increase of character connections here, even if those connections don't get to be fully explored due to, once again, forced rushed ending.
Note to self that I read the first three volumes in one day (not the master editions) and the remaining volumes the next day.

Biomega is a cyberpunk zombie apocalypse story featuring motorbikes, talking grizzly bears, and ridiculously big weapons (but not in a dumb fantasy kind of way). This book drips with style and seems incredibly confident with itself in the best way.

Biomega delves into the aspects of Blame! which I was uninterested in. I didn't find the creature/character designs as intriguing as in Blame, and I really missed the elaborate structures. There are some panel designs I still find confusing, and dialogue isn't his strong suit, but that's okay. That's not what I was reading it for. It's fine, better than other things, but not what I hoped for.

Classic Nihei and it feels more robust and more exciting, even if it begins almost the same way as Blame!. Love the feel of this and while it retains Nihei's hallmark hyper-violence and gore, something about the interplay of human, not-human, death, and synthetic life really works.

' You in the bear suit. Put down the gun and come out of there. ' ' I'm not wearing a suit ... I'm a bear !!! ' ( blam , blam , blam ... )

Nun.
Es kann sehr gut sein, dass Tsutomu Nihei mittlerweile einer meiner absoluten Lieblings-Mangazeichner ist.
Für seine Bilder mussten wahrscheinlich ein paar hundert Tintenfässchen dran glauben, aber der Effekt den sie auf einen haben, ist das allemal wert. Auch wenn nach der Lektüre alle anderen Mangas auf einmal aussehen, als wären sie überbelichtet.
[Ich schreib hier wahrscheinlich noch weiter, sobald ich nicht ne halbe Stunde für einen Absatz brauche, der mir dann nicht gefällt. Aber rest assured, Biomega ist nice.]
