by Craig Shaw Gardner & Billy Tucci
Trying to find some semblance of a normal life and leaving her bloody battles behind, Ana Ishikawa spends an evening reminiscing with her best friend, the vivacious and beautiful Tomoe Gozan. The reunion will be bittersweet however, as unknown to both, Tomoe leads a band of assassins hired to deliver the head of "Shi" to Yakuza crime lord, Masahiro Arashi. While the two share a wonderful evening of wine, Tomoe's Nara warriors wreak havoc across New York City. The Nara are ruthless warriors that have dedicated their lives to the destruction of their centuries-old enemies from Kyoto. Bent on vengeance, these black-cloaked Sohei murder innocents at every corner in an attempt to draw out the Kyoto Sohei known as Shi. Finally Ana once again takes up the naginata, dons her grandfather's kabuki make-up, and attempts to stop these new warriors of death, running into the colossus of Nara itself! A colossus called "Gojira."
Shi: The Illustrated Warrior combines the best aspects of
New York Times best-selling author Craig Shaw Gardner's novelized verse and
Shi creator Billy Tucci's dynamic and richly-detailed illustrations.
Warrior is based on the legendary
Way of the Warrior story arc,
but with an added twist that forever alters the
Shi universe.
