It is the distant past. A great lord of feudal Japan is struck down by an entity of pure evil. A young warrior, sworn to vengeance, becomes a masterless samurai--a ronin--trapped in an eternal struggle with the demon who killed his master.

It is the near future. A great corporation in the urban jungle of New York City is preparing to unleash a deadly new technology. A childlike telepath and a tough-as-nails security commander are the only people who stand in its way.

When these two worlds collide, dreams and reality will blur together for a final, apocalyptic battle--and at the heart of the chaos, a lone swordsman will face the ultimate test of his fealty.

A thrilling, seamless, utterly unique blend of East and West, past and future, magic and science.

Frank Miller's six-issue miniseries Ronin returns in a new trade paperback as part of the Black Label line! It's the tale of a 13th-century samurai who is reborn in a futuristic 21st-century New York City with one last chance to regain his honor: he must defeat the reincarnation of his master's killer, an ancient demon called Agat. This new edition includes promotional art, fold-out pages and more special features.

“Beautiful, ambitious and complex.”  —Rolling Stone
 
“A successful work of fusion, bringing together the tone and sci-fi weirdness of European comic magazines like Metal Hurlant... alongside Japanese manga and ’60s Kurosawa samurai-eiga.” —MTV Geek
 
“His brutal yet elegant noir renderings, pulpy yet eloquent scripting, and thoroughly uncompromising attitude make [Frank Miller] one of the most distinctive voices in comics.” —Entertainment Weekly
