All that stood against an invading army of samurai was one man who could not be defeated in battle.
YI SOON SHIN is a lavish 12-issue limited comic book series based on the true story of Admiral Yi Soon Shin, a Korean naval commander who saved his people from Japanese invasion forces during the Imjin War (1592-1598).
