This five-issue miniseries will launch from Image Comics/Syzygy in October. In Hitomi , a drifter with no prospects in Feudal-era Japan begins training in secret under Yasuke, a now-disgraced former samurai, as she struggles to find her place in a society entrenched in discrimination and violence. “I imagined a long day's journey by foot on the Edo Road,” said Tak. “Posting up at a roadside Sakaya, legs aching.
