In The Path #18, the monk-turned-warrior Obo-san rallies his forces for a desperate uprising, but the fanatically unstable Emperor Mitsumune is already forging a new samurai army in response—setting the stage for a clash of wills that could decide the fate of the realm. Written by Ron Marz and brought to life with striking precision by artist Ron Wagner, with inks by Tom Mandrake and colors by Frank D'Armata, the issue builds tension with quiet intensity. The cover, by Ron Wagner and Armando Durruthy, captures the looming storm with a haunting, dynamic presence.
