A new adventure series, showcasing a unique clash and connection between feudal England and feudal Japan.

Sir Charles Ward, ‘;The Dragon Butcher,’ has achieved knighthood, acclaim, and is leading a legion of royal warriors on a noble mission, yet his self-doubt and grief haunt him. Venturing to a mysterious island in the Far East, Charles leads his diverse assembly of fighters (including a giant and two clerics) to seek vengeance against savage monsters who ambushed a group of English missionaries. Arrival on the island reveals that the truth may be drastically different from what Charles was led to believe, and the ‘;savage monsters’ he will face are actually a regiment of skillful warriors the likes of which he has never seen.

Writer DAVID DASTMALCHIAN praises FEDERICO MELE for vividly portraying characters from England and Japan as they face various mythological beings. Under TODD MCFARLANEs direction, this adventure blends magic, combat, and the pursuit of truth, with insights from consultant THERSA MATSUURA (of Uncanny Japan).
