ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
I love samurai, the code, the fashion, I mean, who doesn't so when I saw that comics writer/artist Ibrahim Moustafa was working on a samurai centric project, I immediately reached out to chat about it. After getting a look at the actual pages, it should come as no surprise that as an adept at blending genre, he's knocking it out of the park again with his forthcoming East meets West Humanoids project Halfblood funding soon on Kickstarter.
I get annoyed sometimes at the panel economization of fight choreography in comics as a daily martial arts practitioner, but was pleasantly surprised with how meticulously this was researched and executed . We chat about that, vampires, the white savior trope, and sculpting figurines which if you haven't checked out his YouTube channel, consider giving it a follow if sculpting or just collecting them is your thing.

Halfblood
From the Kickstarter page
“Do you believe in fate?” asks Senjuro, The Black Demon, to all those who cross his path. Victim or guide.
A masterless, mixed-race samurai, Senjuro skulks through the shadows of an evolving feudal Japan, seeking to serve...but the age of the Samurai flickers on the winds of modernization, and any work to be had is less than honorable. That is until Claire, a wealthy British explorer and anthropologist, swings through the tavern doors seeking aid from the man whose reputation precedes him; the one they call The Black Demon. Her family has just been monstrously slain and exsanguinated, and signs point to perpetrators beyond human. Along with Claire and her Sikh companion Jangveer, Senjuro the Black Demon must face hell on earth to deliver their reckoning, and in the process, find the honor he so desperately seeks.
