Ninja Scroll #6

WildStorm's Ninja Scroll #6 (April 2007) arrives at the midpoint of the "Tengu" arc with a cover that feels deliberately stark and striking — a lone warrior crouched low, katana in each hand, droplets of blood scattered across a near-white background as silhouetted leaves drift overhead. The composition by cover artist JonBoy Meyers conveys exhaustion and hard-won survival in equal measure, letting the fighter's battle-worn posture speak volumes without a single word. Writer J. Torres and artist Michael Chang Ting Yu continue bringing the world of Ninja Scroll to life inside, making this a compelling chapter in one of WildStorm's more atmospheric action series.
