''Cyber Weapon Z'' is one of the first {{Manhua}} to gain notoriety worldwide and often regarded as a pioneer in its genre.
Written by Hong-Kong based Chris Lau and drawn by Andy Seto, the story begins in a [[{{Dystopia}} not-so-distant future where humanity has stopped evolving due to economical stability and superior technology]]. The scions of the Shaolin temple thus devised a program that would enable humans to initiate the next stage of evolution by maximizing humans' physical and mental abilities through intensive training.
[[TheHero Park Iro]] and [[TheChick Anling]] are two newcomers who integrated the program and who are to undergo the exacting tests that would push them beyonf their own limits. In the temple, they meet [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Loneken Carlsber]], his henchwoman [[CatGirl Rosaland]] who will also test their mettle, as well as Bu Kang, the local PluckyComicRelief. The series then introduces antagonists [[BigBad Leiting]], ambitious and iron-willed, and [[DarkActionGirl Soti]], both of them opposed to the Cyber Weapon Z program and seeing the project of sparking a new evolution in humans as inherently hazardous. And soon an even more terrible enemy is revealed...
The 10-volumes series started in China in 1993 and began gaining fame when it was released in Europe in 1994. Its use of colour is what differentiates it from a regular manga, even though said colours are extremely flashy at times.
