Review: SILENT MOBIUS

 Well, considering that Kia Asamiya was a guest at this year's Otakon, maybe it's time for me to cover his most famous manga work.

SILENT MOBIUS (Sairento Mebiusu), by Kia Asamiya.  First published in 1989 and first published in North America in 1999.



PLOT:

In the year of 2026, Tokyo is a pollution-soaked metroplis plagued by bizarre interdimensional creatures known as Lucifer Hawks.  The city's only defense is AMP: the Attacked Mystification Police.  They are an all-female squad of officers who use a combination of magic and tech to destroy the Lucifer Hawks.  They not only have to deal with the resentment of their more ordinary male colleagues but also their own personal struggles and dramas.
