I remember this comic from my primary school days... the main char himself is somewhat of a cyborg.. and yes that discription of the surroundings is quite apt... very dreary... lots of gore, action and back then it was quite confusing being as young as I was. Very distinct art style too. I am unsure how this will translate into live action, but perhaps i'll get a second chance to fully comprehend what was being portrayed in the comic so very long ago... we talking over 15 years here...
