The Free Comic Book Day 2005 giveaway serves as a prelude to the Ronin Hood of the 47 Samurai Graphic Novel. Here, we are introduced to Oishi of the 47 Ronin and his merry band of masterless samurai; their Lord Asano fell prey to the treachery of Lord Kira, who orchestrated a situation in which Asano was forced to commit ritual suicide. Now, these ronin warriors must fight to regain their honor by helping the poor and downtrodden before they put their plan for vengeance into motion. Written by Jeff Amano (Taoland) and beautifully illustrated by Craig Rousseau (Impulse), this preview is an intriguing twist on the Robin Hood legend.
