(W) Christos Gage (A) Tomas Giorello (CA) Lucas Troya
A NEW CAN'T-MISS ONGOING SERIES! From acclaimed writer Christos Gage (Netflix's Daredevil) and superstar artist Tomas Giorello (X-O MANOWAR), the United Kingdom's most dreaded intelligence operative delves into the cold, calculating world of espionage and international intrigue!
For nearly a century, MI-6, the most elite branch of Britain's clandestine intelligence service, has honed a ruthlessly effective, top-secret division - THE NINJA PROGRAMME - into one of its nation's most finely wielded weapons. Tasked as the first and last line of defense for queen and country, this small shadow army of agents and assassins has produced a succession of notable assets, including NINJA-A, the Queen's silent weapon of World War I; NINJA-E, the globetrotting secret agent that pulled the Cold War back from the brink of armageddon; and, most recently, NINJA-K, aka Colin King, a brash but fearless instrument of lethality that has saved the world from madmen and terror at every turn.
But now...an unknown enemy is hunting and killing members of THE NINJA PROGRAMME one by one - and NINJAK is next on the list.

Local Comic Shop Day is a new event that calls attention to independent comic book specialty stores, celebrating their role as pop culture fire-starters. Now in its third year, LCSD has doubled in size with more than 550 participating local comic shops across the country and featuring 16 unique items that will only be available through these brick and mortar stores. Allocations may occur, so quantities will be limited. All items will be sold on a first come, first served basis. We will have a strict limit of one of any particular item per person, although you may purchase more than one item.
While it's awesome that publishers have rallied around this event to provide some truly great limited edition comics and statues, the real purpose of Local Comic Shop Day is to remind the comic book buying public just how pivotal the role of the Local Comic Shop is to the very foundation of this medium. Week in and week out these independently run businesses, some of whom (like Zanadu Comics) have survived for decades, provide their customers with insights, recommendations and service that only actual humans can deliver. Not some star rated b.s. review on Amazon, but personally crafted conversations for each individual who walks through the door from an employee who truly loves these silly, beautiful things called comic books. So, on November 18th 2017, please stop by Zanadu Comics (or any of the other participating stores) to check out the exclusive items and other fabulous surprises that make each and every comic book retailer unique!
