Abstract

Man power in literary work has become a popular topic nowadays. One of its implications is the concept of illuminati. This concept conveys indifference between logic and faith, which develop in an issue of dominance in the existence of manhood. As a contemporary concept it is also a controversial issue for certain level of readers. The obstacles are matters that relates to the ideology intention in a text, which produces similar interpretations. This phenomenon was identified in comics that flourished after Manga was introduced. Furthermore, these types of texts are preferable in society because they expose more of the illustrations in fixating meanings. To approach this analysis ecocriticism was applied to reveal obvious characteristics of the concept. There were two analyses that were conduct, which are identifying logical dominance and grouping the pictures into definite concepts.
