内容紹介
Written by Frank Miller; Art by Frank Miller In this tale of a legendary warrior, the Ronin, a dishonored, masterless 13th century samurai, is mystically given a second chance to avenge his master's death. Finding himself suddenly reborn in a futuristic and corrupt 21st century New York City, the samurai discovers he has one last chance to regain his honor. But to do so, he must defeat the reincarnation of his master's killer, the ancient demon Agat. In a time and place both foreign and unfathomable to him, the Ronin stands against his greatest enemy with his life and more importantly, his soul at stake.

レビュー
"His brutal yet elegant noir renderings, pulpy yet eloquent scripting, and thoroughly uncompromising attitude make [Frank Miller] one of the most distinctive voices in comics."--ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

"A successful work of fusion, bringing together the tone and sci-fi weirdness of European comic magazines like Metal Hurlant...alongside Japanese manga, and 60's Kurosawa samurai-eiga. --MTV Geek

"This is Miller in his creative infancy and the groundwork for the future is clearly on display." --IGN

感想
昔の日本の侍が、現代のアメリカに蘇って、悪魔と戦う話。

SFっぽいデザインの主人公の侍が、カッコ良い。

フランク・ミラー氏が、小池一夫氏の「子連れ狼」に影響を受けたらしいので、小池一夫氏はすごいと思った。
