Street Fighter Legends: Ibuki Comic Book Announced!

Dec 08, 2009 // jgonzo

Street Fighter III’s Ibuki is finally getting her own comic book exploring her story in March, 2010 with UDON Entertainment’s Street Fighter Legends: Ibuki, a 4 issue mini-series. Comic Book Resources has a lengthy and detailed interview with writer Jim Zubkavich and artist Omar Dogan (Street Fighter Legends: Chun Li ).

“‘Street Fighter Legends: Ibuki’ is a teen action-dramedy in the vein of ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer,’ except our heroine is an acrobatic super-ninja and the vampires are other martial artists,” Zubkavich said. “It’s fun, energetic and filled with snappy banter, coupled with the best artwork of Omar Dogan’s career. In addition, the mini-series is rocking ahead of schedule and will be in stores on time. If all that’s not enough to pique your interest, I’m afraid you must hand in your geek membership card on the way out.

Strengthening the ties to Buffy is the announcement that variant covers will feature artwork by “Empowered” creator Adam Warren, “Buffy Season 8” cover artist Jo Chen and others.
