VIKINGS vs SAMURAI Is Back, Baby — and This Time, It’s Personal

You ever load the chamber, aim at the target, and just before you pull the trigger—bam—the whole goddamn world shifts sideways? Yeah. That was me this year.
The plan? Drop a physical issue of VIKINGS vs SAMURAI. Print. Paper. Blood on the page. All the pieces were there—characters locked, story tighter than a tanto to the throat. We were ready to roll.
But then? Diamond Comics goes tits up. Boom. The biggest comic book distributor in North America, gone like a bad guy in a third-act sword duel. Bankruptcy. Then came the tariffs. A supply chain more tangled than a Ronin’s moral compass.
So here’s what we’re doing: We're staying digital.
No crying over spilt ink. No waiting for some suit to give us permission. We're dropping VIKINGS vs SAMURAI the way it was meant to be—raw, brutal, and straight to your inbox.
And this next arc? Oh, this one’s got teeth.
It’s the tale of Hideo.
The sword-saint with doubts. The samurai who looked at the blood on his blade and said, “Maybe I’m fighting for the wrong bastard.”
This is the moment he turns. Leaves Tsukamoto-sama in the dust and joins the longboats.
A haiku in his heart and vengeance on his breath.
I just need to put the final shine on Hideo’s haiku before I hand this beast off to Buğra—our mad-genius illustrator with ink-stained fingers and fire in his brush.
This chapter is gonna howl.
