Illustrated and written by Hayao Miyazaki, and serialised between 1982 and 1994, this for me is the pinnacle of his work. The 1984 movie constitutes less than a quarter of the content of the finished manga, with a very different storyline.
Although it does well depicting the post-apocalyptic poisoned world - filled with giant insects and the crumbling wrecks of starships and giant cyborg “god warriors” - watching the movie feels a bit like having read The Lord of the Rings - and finding out that the film version pretty much starts off the same, before turning into Krull, then ending just before the Balrog bit..
