Ghost in the Shell Volume 1 2nd edition TPB by Shirow Masamune
4.0
Major Kusanagi is a cyborg made of robotic body parts (a “shell”, big breast included taken from word Bombshell) but here shell meaning is that body of Robot and a human mind (a “ghost”, you get it) a combination which can delete there past memories create a thick line between human and robotic. Her sidekick, Batou, is also a cyborg, of the hulk sort with beefed up body. The evil Puppeteer too is a sentient artificial hacker emerged from the “sea of information”. Considering that this was written in the 80s, in many ways Masamune Shirow was something of a visionary.
