With all the talk about the upcoming live action Ghost in the Shell movie, what better time to revisit another (slightly less popular) 90s series about a kick-ass cyborg who sometimes questions what it means to be human! My friend Rachel from RachelLovesComics joins me to talk about Battle Angel Alita: the various incarnations, the sometimes surprisingly relevant themes throughout, and even the 80′s style poofy hair (even though it was the 90s.)
