MESSAGE TO OUR KICKSTARTER SUPPORTERS
Reggie Byers extends his sincerest apologies to the backers of the SHURIKEN Kickstarter.
We are still committed to complete all fulfillments to our backers but are still weeks
behind our projected May 19th, 2024 deadline of completing our rewards shipments.
Again, we thank you and appreciate your endless patience and know that YOU are our core
supporters for the life of this brand that began in 1985.
SHURIKEN unfolds the tale of Kyoko Shidara, a skilled Japanese bodyguard and fighter employed by an assassin agency that targets other killers. Despite never having taken a life, Kyoko anticipates her boss assigning such a task soon.
Originally created in 1985 by Reggie Byers, SHURIKEN became one of the top-selling black & white independently published comics in the 1980's.
In 2021, Byers revived the character, launching an entirely new SHURIKEN series for a new generation to enjoy.
