Ninjak #1 Returns with Second Printing

Ninjak #1 attacked readers with the cunning and force of a well-trained ninja assassin. It also hit comic book stores with an immense popularity that warrants a second printing, giving Matt Kindt and Clay Mann a second chance to endear readers to their work. And the second printing will arrive in stores on April 22, the same day as Ninjak #2.

Then: Meet inexperienced MI-6 recruit Colin King on his first mission in the field as he learns the basics of spycraft and counterintelligence, and develops a volatile relationship with his first handler. Now: Colin King is Ninjak, the world’s foremost intelligence operative, weapons expert, and master assassin. And he’s hunting the Shadow Seven – a secret cabal of shinobi masters with mysterious ties to his training and tragic past.
