Ninja-K Vol 1 8

There are only the undying... and those who die. Guess, which you are.

-- Eternal Warrior

Solicitation[]

Sometimes...the dead just won't stay dead!

Colin King has recruited a highly skilled team of black ops specialists – including Livewire, Dr. Mirage, Punk Mambo, and the robotic alien colossus called GIN-GR – for the ultimate search-and-destroy mission! The Jonin, the mysterious mentor behind the program that trained MI6’s elite ninja assassins, has resurfaced in Mexico City at the head of a covert cabal of long-lived and near-immortal renegades with incredible powers…and a mission that could destabilize human civilization as we know it!

“THE COALITION” reaches a tumultuous tipping point as acclaimed writer Christos Gage (Netflix’s Daredevil) and incendiary artist Juan José Ryp (BRITANNIA) launch headfirst into another breakneck chapter of the espionage-fueled battle between Valiant’s newest teams of heroes and villains!
