Thirty years of waiting is over.  If you asked yourself recently why The Matrix Resurrections got made... this book answers your question. The 1999 movie The Matrix derives from stolen material. That unfinished original work is here, available as a digital file for the first time, alongside pages from Thomas Althouse's The Immortals, and consideration of the manga Ghost in The Shell, as well as Grant Morrison's The Invisibles. It was 1993. The Wachowskis acquired a comic script, written by a young hopeful. He was trying to impress Marvel—the company they worked for at the time. A series of events unfolded. These resulted in the creation of a well known science-fiction series. It also gave the world Sophia Stewart, the so-called “Mother of The Matrix,” and an unusual, “personal” 2021 sequel. “An intriguing story, well told, by a man who may just have been the real creator of arguably the most popular science-fiction film of all time” – Lesley Hudson (Editor)
