Because YOU demanded it, Sam Noir, Samurai Detective is back in action this February with an all new mini-series, and a collection of his critically acclaimed and completely sold out debut adventure!

Walking the way of the samurai on the seedy streets of pulp fiction, Sam Noir delivers an exciting new brand of heroism. This February his saga continues in the three-issue mini-series Sam Noir: Ronin Holiday by Eric A. Anderson and Manny Trembley. After love went tragically wrong, Sam decides that a tropical retreat is just the thing to take his mind off the pain. But when bloodthirsty assassins interrupt Sam's vacation he's forced to put down his Pina Colada and pick up his sword. With Sam on the case, those white sandy beaches are gonna run red!

Just because Sam wants to forget about his earlier adventures, doesn't mean you should, so Image is rushing out a special edition collecting his first mini-series in its entirety! On the third floor of a low-rent office, Sam Noir met his destiny. She wore a dress and took Sam on the best ride of his life -- until they snuffed her out. They nixed his Betty, and now he's gonna nix them! Sam Noir: Samurai Detective Special Edition #1 brings back all the hard boiled action that flew off the shelves the first time around.
