TKMGK sword USB version

After I wrote USB, I couldn't get that idea out of my head. Here's a more tekkno one with USB handle. =)

I don't think I would enjoy drawing the sword blade circuitry, but I like the idea of the hilt acting as a USB

yeah maybe too much circuitry. maybe you can come up with a shorthand for those lines or just the suggestion of them. there's also the old manga trick of not showing those kinds of details until there's a closeup of the blade. that works too :)

WHAT IS TKMGK?

"The end will begin from without. The beginning will end from within..."

Algernon had visions of a perfect utopia of technology ruled over by him. Instead, he turned the planet into a desolate place where the scraps of life are mostly cyborgs, mutants, or zombies. In order to stop him from continuing his evil plans, the disciples of magic summoned a mighty warrior of old called Sen, The Rogun. It was he who defeated Algernon with the powerful weapon known as the TKMGK. It was an epic battle, but in the end, both combatants vanished without a trace and left the battered TKMGK clattering to the ground. In fear, the disciples broke this sacred weapon into pieces and hid them in different locations within The Pyramid Tower. Even today, their descendants continue to hold the secrets and guard them with their lives.

Now, one of the last surviving humans (Janson) believes a strange girl (Masuyo) holds the key to the locations of the TKMGK locked within her mind. He and his army of clones will stop at nothing to get it and release the spirit of Algernon who is, they believe, trapped within the vast computer banks inside The Pyramid Tower. But not too far away, a mysterious boy (Ayamu) awakens by a telepathic connection with the girl. He has been frozen- asleep for 100 years- and has no memory of who he was. Will he be able to save Masuyo and stop Janson? Or will the TKMGK be discovered and destroy what's left of our dying planet?
