Legend of the Shadowclan #4 (Aspen Comics, 2013)

The line between family and fighters has officially blurred.

The Himura family’s fight for survival takes a dramatic turn in this fourth chapter of the Aspen 10th Anniversary series. After the harrowing narrow escapes of the previous issues, the family is no longer just reacting to attacks—they are beginning to understand the magnitude of the ancient conflict they've inherited. However, knowledge comes with a price, and the internal strain of their new reality starts to show cracks in the family unit.

David Wohl and Cory Smith continue to deliver a high-speed blend of urban fantasy and martial arts. As the Himuras delve deeper into the secrets of the Shadowclan, they realize that the enemy they are facing is far more integrated into the modern world than they ever could have feared.

Issue Highlights:

• The Training Begins: The Himura children start to explore the more dangerous aspects of their legacy, leading to a shift in power dynamics within the family.

• A New Threat: A major reveal regarding the organization hunting the Shadowclan raises the stakes from a personal vendetta to a global conspiracy.

• Dynamic Art: Cory Smith continues to impress with his ability to transition from quiet, emotional character moments to explosive, fluid ninja combat.
