Samurai Shin

​The Iceberg Luffy Experience
With Inspiration from manga/anime like Samurai Champloo, and Afro Samurai, writer Mikel Miles and artist Ivan Aguilar presents Samurai Shin. The story is about two samurai named Amir Atsuko, and Keith Masaru.



The first chapter introduces the native village of both Amir and Keith. You can tell from the initial interactions between these two characters that they have polar-opposite personalities. If you want a comparison of these two characters you could think of Afro/Mugen, or Naruto/Sasuke respectably. In the first issue, it does not take long disaster to strike as the village of our main characters are attacked.


We at Iceberg Luffy refuse to spoil the story. I feel that one of the reasons why this project can be successful is because it contains a story system. when you think of story systems, think the One Piece seven warlords/four emperors and Navy, or the HXH Phantom Troop ect. In Samurai Shin’s case we have the Seven Guardians. Now not much is revealed about the seven guardians but one thing we all feel at Iceberg Luffy is that if this system is fleshed out in it’s entirety it can be as popular or perhaps more popular than Afro Samurai or Samurai Champloo.
 All in all this is a great read. The Art work is stellar. The writing is great. One thing I notice with the first issue is a lot it is told not shown, However thats more of a personal taste. This is a great story, definitely worthy of a read. How Miles, handles this aspect will be interesting. With one chapter released, I can indeed see the potential of this story, and look forward to more going forward. As stated earlier, if You like Samurai Champloo, or Afro Samurai give this a read.
