Dark Horse Comics is serialzing the first volume of Shaman Warrior, the critically acclaimed manhwa series, in free weekly installments on its web site.
Shaman Warrior is “a dramatic fantasy series with a kinetic style that will appeal to fans of Blade of the Immortal and Vagabond. From the desert wastelands emerge two mysterious warriors, master wizard Yarong and his faithful servant Batu. On a grave mission from their king, they have yet to realize the whirlwind of political movements and secret plots which will soon engulf them and change their lives forever. When Yarong is mortally injured, Batu must fulfill a secret promise to leave Yarong’s side and protect his master’s child. As Batu seeks to find and hide the infant, Yarong reveals another secret to those who have tracked him down to finish him off—the deadly, hidden power of a shaman warrior.”
Dark Horse Director of Asian Licensing Michael Gombos said “We’re happy that Haksan Publishing, which originally published the series, has allowed us to do something spectacular. It should be noted that nothing like this has ever happened in the US, much less Korea. We’re pleased to be a part of such a tremendous event, and happy to share one of Korea’s most renowned series with the English-speaking world.”
