The premise of a future society with toxic air and bioconstructed cities is a good one. However, the stories in the volume are somewhat inconsistent in terms of the plotting. And yet, Shirow makes good use of some dark humor to balance things out, which makes the reader appreciate the work some more. The art is ok, but I think Shirow has done better in other works. I liked the catgirl molls. Overall, this is a pretty quick easy read. Casual readers may not appreciate it as much, but I think Shirow fans will like it. I saw another reviewer describe this as campy, and I think that is a word that applies very well to this volume. ( ) Not as well known as Shirow's Ghost in the Shell or Appleseed but still entertaining. In the future the police use tanks to fight crime although most of the time they end up doing more damage then the criminals. Not much else to the story other then the basic premiss each chapter is episodic and there really isn't an overarching plot to tie them together. As for the art, being this was one of Shirow's early works the it is a little rough compared to his current style. However Dominion does show some of Shirow's cool vehicle designs and introduced his well known Puma sisters. Overall I can only really recommend it if you are a Shirow fan as it can't really stand up to his much better GitS or Appleseed series, not that Dominion is bad its just that if you really want to get a feel for Shirow's work you should start with those and then move on to his older stuff like Dominion and Black Magic. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
