Valiant is proud to announce that NINJA-K #1 – the 48-PAGE FIRST ISSUE of the EXPLOSIVE NEW ONGOING SERIES from acclaimed writer Christos Gage (Netflix’s Daredevil) and superstar artist Tomás Giorello (X-O MANOWAR) – has sold out at the distributor level and will return with the NINJA-K #1 SECOND PRINTING on January 3rd!

In the footsteps of fellow best-selling series like X-O MANOWAR, SECRET WEAPONS, and BLOODSHOT SALVATION, Valiant’s ICONS initiative continues this winter as Gage and Giorello dive deep into the classified history of the black-budget spy network that trained Colin King and his predecessors…and launch Ninjak on a manhunt through a cold, calculating world of espionage and international intrigue in search of a killer targeting all ninja agents – past and present!

For nearly a century, MI-6, the most elite branch of Britain’s clandestine intelligence service, has honed a ruthlessly effective, top-secret division – THE NINJA PROGRAMME – into one of its nation’s most finely wielded weapons. Tasked as the first and last line of defense for queen and country, this small shadow army of agents and assassins has produced a succession of notable assets, including NINJA-A, the Queen’s silent weapon of World War I; NINJA-E, the globe-trotting secret agent that pulled the Cold War back from the brink of Armageddon; and, most recently, NINJA-K, aka Colin King, a brash but fearless instrument of lethality that has saved the world from madmen and terror at every turn. But now…an unknown enemy is hunting and killing members of THE NINJA PROGRAMME one by one – and NINJAK is next on the list.

On January 3rd, start at the beginning to experience the full intensity of the espionage-laden, super-spy thriller that has fans and critics riveted:
