Welcome to a warrior's tale. Shin Kage, (named after the Shin Kage Ryu system of Kenjustsu) is a character who ran in Apa 5 for many years, and was much changed through the time it ran. The first story is of Shin as a kid, when he first meets his sensei, John Roman in a hidden away spot on Araoa, The Mountainworld.

In the second story Shin's grown up. This section was very loosely based on a section of Eiji Yoshkawa's huge novel of Miyamotto Musashi, entitled (appropriately enough) MUSASHI (now a series of graphic novels called Vagabond). It's a fun story!

Lastly Shin wanders around in what I term the Prince Valiant mode. I had become a huge fan of Harold Foster, and Shin's adventures emulated Prince Valiant in format (and to be honest in writing)

I intend to put up a page or two each week (relettered and with as much tightening up/tweaking as I can do), hopefully in full color. Hope you like it!
