   @maxthefox … Can I maybe offer you "Glasshouse"? (Hugo shortlist 2006, didn't win.) From other authors, "The Quantum Thief" by Hannu Ranajiemi is great (start of a trilogy, too). Can't speak for comics but maybe @anthracite has an opinion?

     Can someone recommend me some hard or semi-hard transhumanist #scifi (preferably prose or webcomic form) that does *not* have a faux-rationalist eugenicsy vibe to it and has a more laid-back and creative attitude regarding posthuman enhancements and so on, while also *not* having a technophobic, conservative attitude that treats the human body and mind as something sacred and untouchable like a lot of sci-fi that touches on these topics?
