I see the two works as something of a sibling relationship. Monster representing the serious, slow-burning, down to earth older brotherly figure, and the other, while not necessarily eclipsed by the former's shadow, the stylish loudmouth, the flamboyant yet self aware younger sibling. Both works definitely exploring grounds of similar nature, yet never really in the same way. Where one celebrates its flirting with its themes and undertones of power, the other arrives after the party, picture cops with flashlights at night, slowly investigating the beginning, the middle, and the aftermath of what occured.

Both introductions to carefully crafted universes, that seduce you through their effervescent world building and master class study of the hypothetically futuristic human condition, and never quite let go.
