14 years is a long time for a series to lie dormant, but there must be something in the air this year with both Rise of the Triad and Shadow Warrior getting rebuilt from scratch. The new Shadow Warrior de-ages Lo Wang a few decades, turning him into a smart-assed employee of Zilla Corporation, trying to broker a deal between Zilla and the possessor of a unique sword. Things go bad, demons attack, Lo Wang merges with a helpful demon and starts learning new skills and Ki powers, and a whole load of monsters get vivisected into their component parts. Shadow Warrior is bloody, brutal, violent, and surprisingly pretty.
