About the series
In the late 2000s, Image Comics published Cowboy Ninja Viking, a 10-issue series that follows a secret government program turning individuals with multiple personality disorder into highly specialized assassins. Written by A.J. Lieberman with striking, kinetic art by Riley Rossmo, the book blends dark humor with over-the-top action as its protagonist—a man able to channel the skills of a cowboy, a ninja, and a Viking—navigates a violent conspiracy. Its inventive premise and Rossmo’s distinctive visual style made it a cult favorite, capturing the era’s appetite for genre-mashing, high-concept storytelling.
