Main Topic (7:56)


It's time for another COMIC SPOTLIGHT! This week, Chris and
Dallas discuss THE LAST RONIN. Three decades in the making, this
story is based on an unpublished 1987 story concept by creators
Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. In a dank, dark future, New York
City is ruled by Oroku Hiroto, grandson of The Shredder and
bastard son of Karai. Hiroto runs the city with meticulous
fascism and totalitarianism. A lone turtle, haunted by
hallucinations of his three deceased brothers, works to end
Hiroto, who he blames for his brothers' murders.


Eastman and Laird are joined by writer Tom Waltz, who penned the
first 100 issues of IDW's ongoing TMNT series, and artists Esau
& Isaac Escorza (Heavy Metal) and Ben Bishop (The Far Side of
the Moon).
