Just as The Bible has its Genesis and The Matrix has The Second Renaissance, BLAME! has NOiSE. This single-volume prequel unveils the world before the Netsphere malfunctioned through the eyes of Susono Musubi, a member of the police force. Readers will witness the catastrophic events that plunged the highly advanced society into disarray, from the uncontrollable growth of the Megastructure to the birth of parasitic life forms, Silicon Creatures, and the creation of the merciless killing machines, Safeguards. Moreover, this compilation includes BLAME, Tsutomu Nihei's debut work, which served as the blueprint for the renowned BLAME! 10-volume series.
