The Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex series is based on Masamune Shirow's original Ghost in the Shell manga.

Kodansha Comics is currently publishing reprints of the original manga in English in North America. Kodansha also launched two new manga series based on the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex television anime series last December.
