Ninjak and The Eternal Warrior blast into the future as “THE FIST & THE STEEL” for a sword-swinging standalone adventure this summer.
Valiant announced via Comic Vine, “THE FIST & THE STEEL” – an new story and all-new jumping point for two of its biggest heroes. It begins this August in NINJAK #18.
“Many years from today, see where the battle-scarred road has taken Valiant’s deadliest operative as writer Matt Kindt and acclaimed artists Khari Evans and Andres Guinaldo deploy a seasoned Colin King into an unknown tomorrow! He may not be as fast or as strong as he once was, but with the Eternal Warrior at his side, Ninjak will show the world that his steel is as sharp as ever!
Many years from now, Earth’s immortal master of war and the world’s deadliest intelligence operative fight side by side as veteran brothers-in-arms. The decades of warfare and combat have taken their toll, but Ninjak and the Eternal Warrior still spend their waning days as humanity’s guardians, protecting it from the myriad threats that loom over the horizon of Earth’s future. But what united these wayward heroes as trusted allies, and how did they become the most feared force against evil?
Plus: Back in the present, the unthinkable has happened to Ninjak and his fellow MI-6 agents that survived the horrors of the Deadside! Infected with an aggressive and lethal cancer from his exposure to a noxious parallel dimension, Ninjak must reach inward for his one shot at survival. As Colin King enters a deep meditative state, his mind opens to futuristic visions of “THE FIST & THE STEEL”…and the clues that could save his cancer-ridden body!”
Picking up the story first seen in last summer’s BOOK OF DEATH: THE FALL OF NINJAK, jump on board the adventures of the MI-6’s super-spy here as the Eternal Warrior joins the fight to make all of Earth their battlefield.
