They say there is no honor left in the world. They say there are no honorable samurai left in the world. But they are all wrong. There is at least one left -- Samuree! This storyline has been crafted to introduce new readers to Samuree and introduce all readers to her most dangerous arch-enemy yet! An epic story that stretches over hundreds of centuries, Samuree is a great introduction to the work of Neal Adams. In this issue: Samuree, a sixteen-year-old martial arts master, finds herself trapped in a web of vengeance, hatred, honor and betrayal. She is the only thing standing in the way of a villain who has waited centuries for revenge. Not your run-of-the-mill villain, his sense of honor and ethics is not too different from Samuree's. But our heroine faces a terrible decision -- can she stand in the way of his vengeance, when vengeance lies at the core of her being? Written by Peter Stone, with art by Rodolfo Damaggio, Neal Adams and Saw Nan. Cover by Mark Beachum. Cover price $2.50.
