b&w

Officer Noa Izumi is your typical overachiever in this Dirty Dozen-meets-Johnny Socko manga comic. Understaffed and lacking any vehicles, Izumi and her colleagues must suffer under the eccentric command of Goto, Captain of the Special Vehicles Division 2, Section 2. Will they survive long enough for their Patlabors, enormous robotic vehicles designed for heavy construction work, to arrive? Is Goto as incompetent as he seems? And why are all the new Labors malfunctioning? Only time (and the next issue) will answer these questions. Like most modern manga, this title also boasts an anime version of the adventures of Special Vehicles Division 2, Section 2.
