Seeking relevance, Kafka finds himself a pawn in shadowy government schemes, cult celebrity culture, and weaponized nostalgia. His desperate quest for humanity drags him straight into the wormhole of mankind’s darkest vices… and confronts him with a jaw-dropping existential truth. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAutomatic Kafka\u003c\/i\u003e is a gritty, post-modern take on superheroes, but presented as a surreal, razor-sharp takedown of fame, power, and the machinery that manufactures both. \u003ci\u003eThe Boys\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDoom Patrol\u003c\/i\u003e meets \u003ci\u003eMr. Robot\u003c\/i\u003e in this must-read cult-classic.","brand":"Image Comics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48203256267007,"sku":"9781534332621","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781534332621_s600x595.jpg?v=1775747134","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781534332621","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
