First of all, this is not your average fantasy comic, at least I hope it isn't. This is an urban fantasy ninja superhero/vigilante comic dealing with malevolent entities, mob bosses, and other villains.

Premise: The last survivor of the Ly'Nur warrior-monks flees the destroyed monastery carrying his order's secrets and a token that he doesn't understand, pursued by agents of darkness until he reaches America. There he disappears into the underground of Grantcove City. He soon becomes embroiled in the war between crime and justice. But his enemies are drawing close, enemies from the shadow world.

Now for some more detail, this is a combination of ninja manga and American superhero comics, with my own twist. The Ly'Nur Monks are a branch of the Teleporters based in Central Asia where they train for warfare with Entities. The main character is a Teleporter, but unaware of it. He's also trained the skills of the ninja and supernatural conflict.

I'm all set to write the script, but I don't have an artist to make the pictures. If anyone's interested, PM me.

Ok, don't take this as a volunteer to draw post (I've got way too much to do.)

I like your premise but, I have a couple of things I'd change if I was doing this story. 1 I'd not tell you whether the world is ours or not. 2 The word "ninja" is kind of a bad word with me it always seems ninjas are corny.
But that being said I think this could be really neat.

Could you explain the teleport thing some more?

It isn't exactly our world, but it's similar.

Ninja is shorter than warrior-monk, and is cooler.

Teleporters are high level entities created to fight the forces of darkness, with many "magical" powers, like the ability to move through the multiverse easily. More detail can fond here: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1657

Thanks for posting!

Interesting!

Knowing how you handle superhero stories, I'd want to read this.

I'm glad you'd want to. I'll probably share the script either here or over on HWSF.
