The Weapon #1

Jun 2007 · Platinum Studios · 2.99 USD

Genius inventor Thomas Zhou presents his unique holographic weapon system inspired by the mythical Shan-Tao order of monks at a Hawaiian technology expo. He gets a wealthy and beautiful backer to fund his company but they are both immediately attacked by showgirls with weapons screaming that they will kill all of the sons of the Shan-Tao order. Since he believes that he fabricated much of the Shan-Tao story from legends told to him by his dead grandfather, Thomas tries to figure out exactly what is going on before the legend kills him.
