In doing so he hopes to prevent the establishment from forcibly changing the human race instead of solving the pollution issue. Captain Brenten and his squadron of Tank Police, composed of officers Leona Ozaki and Al'Cu Ad Solte among others, set out to put a stop to Buaku using their brute military force. "Dominion: Phantom of the Audience" An omake (or short story) titled "Dominion: Phantom of the Audience" was originally published as part of a "Special Graphix Dominion" ComiComi special issue in 1988. Seishinsha collected it in the Dominion F volume with a reprint of the original manga on January 27, 1993 and in North America it was published by Dark Horse Comics on March 1, 1994. It involves a fictional sport called "Smartball" and features Leona and the rest of the Tank Police crew. Dominion Conflict One: No More Noise by Masamune Shirow was originally published in the Young Manga magazine in 1992 and 1993, and one collected volume was published on February 21, 1995 by Seishinsha and in North America in March 1997 by Dark Horse Comics. It is not considered to be part of the same continuity as the original stories. While the story revolves around Leona Ozaki and the members of the Newport Tank Police, and Conflict One contains some of the same elements as in the original stories, other aspects have been downplayed, altered, or completely removed. Originally planning four Conflict series, Shirow has placed Dominion on hold while he worked on other projects. These included the various Ghost in the Shell anime and Man-Machine Interface. Conflict Two, originally planned for 1997, has yet to be published. New continuity Many elements set Conflict apart from the original Dominion story. Shirow has asked people to think of Conflict as another time line altogether. Pollution issues: Newport no longer suffers from the poison smog that kept the city in a haze. Many images in the manga feature skyline shots showing clear skies, and aircraft is much more common. Formalization of the Tank Police: The Newport City Police Department is shown as a full station house. The chief is still in command, but many other divisions have been added (including traffic control, investigation, forensics, data processing, and internal affairs), making the unit much more realistic. The Tank Police have been changed and are presented as a much larger organization with a clearly defined role in police operations.
