It's not my favorite cover of the month but none of those made it so ok.

I preordered the book (was supposed to come out a while ago) because I like a couple artists doing work in it.

The staff at the Ghost in the Shell Arise press conference revealed more details on Tuesday about the Ghost in the Shell Online (tentative title) PC game.
