Re:Metropolis

A stunning graphic novel with over 90 anime-style illustrations that reimagines Thea von Harbou's classic sci-fi tale in vivid detail.

Above the gleaming spires and endless innovation of Metropolis lives Freder, the privileged son of Joh Frederson, Master of the city. Freder's life is one of luxury, competition, and endless leisure. With no real struggles to contend with, his days are spent among the elite at the exclusive Club of the Sons, tinkering with inventions and indulging in hollow pleasures. Yet, beneath the glittering surface of Metropolis lies a secret world the Worker's City, where men toil endlessly to power the machines that sustain Freder's paradise.

Freder's life is upended when he encounters her a mysterious woman with golden hair and sky-blue eyes, leading a group of emaciated children up from the depths. Her voice rings out: "Look, these are your brothers." In that instant, Freder's perfectly ordered world shatters.

For the first time, Freder finds himself alive with purpose as he defends the woman from a guard's brutal attack, unleashing martial arts skills he'd once practiced as a pastime. Her bravery, kindness, and unshakable resolve captivate him, igniting feelings he can barely comprehend. But is love even possible between someone from the towering heights of Metropolis and someone from the shadowed depths of the Worker's City?

Freder's awakening doesn't stop there. With new eyes, he begins to hear the relentless grinding of gears, the hiss of pistons, and the cries of men enslaved to the machines. The truth of his world is unavoidable, and Freder must make a choice stay silent in the comfort of privilege, or risk everything for a love that might change the fate of Metropolis forever.
