Published by UDON COMICS.
Featuring fantastic full color anime-style artwork printed on high quality paper.
In the universe of Street Fighter, fighters of every size, shape and color collide in a global battle for supremacy. From every corner of the world, martial artists, boxers, wrestlers and fighters of every conceivable sort perform superhuman acts in their willing (or unwilling) participation in the Street Fighter Tournament-the contest being hosted by M. Bison, the sadistic dictator and leader of the underground Shadaloo criminal organization. Some contestants fight for reasons as diverse as their nationalities... some fight for money, answers, or vengeance, while others fight for reasons completely shrouded in mystery. Street Fighter, the legendary franchise by Capcom that revolutionized gaming and entertained players and fans for over a decade with its unforgettable cast of World Warriors, finally hits the printed page with every pulse- pounding Dragon Punch and bone-crushing Sonic Boom intact, just like it was meant to be!
Guile and Chun-Li must not only face and fight the man they once knew as Charlie, but also the man responsible for their pain and suffering... M. Bison! Meanwhile, Akuma, the man?or perhaps monster?responsible for the death of Ryu and Ken's master, finally comes face to face with them. PLUS: Bison's favorite Doll Agent, Cammy, is put to the test against Vega in an all-out action-fest by Korean sensation Hyung-Tae Kim (Magna Carta, Oxide)!
In the 90s, gamers across the country spent millions of their hard-earned quarters at the arcade and made Street Fighter II one of the most popular video games of all time. Years later, many comic book readers probably still remember how to make Ryu execute a dragon punch or flying spin kick. In this Street Fighter series, the characters and events follow the designs and back stories established in the video game that first introduced the world to Guile, Chun Li, and M. Bison.
Street Fighter, the legendary franchise by Capcom that revolutionized gaming and entertained players and fans for over a decade with its unforgettable cast of World Warriors, finally hits the printed page with every pulse-pounding Dragon Punch and bone-crushing Sonic Boom intact, just like it was meant to be!
Arguably, the key secret to the success of Street Fighter II lies behind the strong characterization applied to the central figures—anybody who is familiar with the video game likely bonds with at least one of the colorful fighters because they can find something to identify with him (or her). For the popular fighting game to carry over into the comics medium was a complete natural.
A MUST HAVE for all Die Hard Street Fighter fans.
