Book Synopsis
In a dump in the lawless settlement of Scrapyard, far beneath the mysterious space city of Zalem, disgraced cyber-doctor Daisuke Ido makes a strange find: the detached head of a cyborg woman who has lost all her memories. He names her Alita and equips her with a powerful new body. While Alita remembers no details of her former life, a moment of desperation reawakens in her nerves a legendary martial arts ability. Regrown, she decides to become a hunter-killer, tracking those who prey on the weak. But can she hold onto her humanity as she begins to revel in her own bloodlust?

Trade Review
"A great, kickass story." - James Cameron

"A story to savor, this is science fiction at its best." - Otaku USA Magazine

"With this oversize reissue, it's easy to really marvel at [Kishiro's] artwork... Battle Angel Alita is certainly one of the greatest (and possibly the greatest) of all sci-fi action manga series." - Anime News Network

"The moment my local comic store stuck a Battle Angel Alita poster in their window with a 'Now In Stock' notice, I grabbed up my copy of the first volume and it changed my life forever." - Brenden Fletcher (Batgirl, from the foreword)
