STREET FIGHTER #0 MANGA COMIC BOOK!
OUT OF PRINT. HARD TO FIND COLLECTOR'S ITEM FIRST ISSUE!
Published by UDON COMICS.
Featuring fantastic full color anime-style artwork
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!
THIS ISSUE:
UDON's Street Fighter series! The fan-favorite comic begins with an introductory jumping-on point for new readers and sets the stage for the full relaunch of Street Fighter II. Street Fighter II #0 tells the tale of Ryu from his childhood training with Ken, the murder of his martial arts master, Gouken. His journey to exact retribution upon his master's murderer, Akuma. Through his worldwide quest, Ryu will face fighters from different disciplines world and also a dark, vengeful power welling within him that Gouken's death stirred.
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.
