Ninja Scroll

Based on the classic anime film, this 2007 DC Comics one-shot brings the brutal world of feudal Japan to the printed page. Written by J. Torres with art by Michael Chang Ting Yu, the story follows the wandering ninja Jubei Kibagami as he becomes entangled in a deadly conspiracy involving a mysterious plague and a shadowy group of ninja clans. This single issue stands as a direct comic adaptation of the film's core narrative, capturing its signature blend of supernatural action and political intrigue for a new medium.
