Description

"Ninja Attack!" introduces dozens of unforgettable real-life ninja straight out of the annals of Japanese history many of whom are all but unknown outside their home country. Ninja masters. Solo assassins and operatives. Femme fatales as deadly as they were sexy. Swordfighters out of legend. And the Shogun and warlords who commanded them. Each individual is profiled with a full-page manga-style drawing and a dossier brimming with top-secret information, including photos, anecdotes, and dramatic stories of the individuals in action. "Ninja Attack!" is everything you always wanted to know about ninja but were too afraid you'd get a shuriken in the eye to ask.

Reviews

"I wish I'd had this beautiful book back in 1983 when Kevin Eastman and I created the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles -- it would have helped a lot! At the very least, the 'ninja stuff' in our comic book would have been quite a bit more authentic." - Peter Laird, Co-creator, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles "A must read for ninja fans! And the illustrations are brilliant! I wish there was a Japanese edition of this book." - Takashi Okazaki, Creator of "Afro Samurai"
