Shuriken The Graphic Novel

In 1987, Blackthorne Publishing released this single-issue graphic novel, a self-contained tale of a ninja assassin in a gritty, modern setting. Writer Neil Vokes and artist-writer Reggie Byers crafted a dark, action-driven story that stands as a distinct artifact of the era's direct-market experimentation. Though a brief entry, it captures the early indie-comics ambition to merge martial-arts cinema with the graphic-novel format.
