Jindai

Set in the distant future of Zenescope Entertainment’s mythos, Jindai is a five-issue miniseries (2005–2006) that reimagines the classic tale of Mulan as a sci-fi action epic. Written by Joe Brusha and illustrated by Julaino, the story follows a young woman who takes her ailing father’s place in a brutal, intergalactic war, blending martial arts with high-tech warfare. Though a short run, it stands out for its bold genre twist on a legendary Chinese folk story, offering a fresh, female-driven adventure within Zenescope’s early lineup.
