Journal History

ABOUT JETTA: TALES OF THE TOSHIGAWA

Overview

The graphic novel is about a young Japanese woman, Shiandrea Toshigawa, born into the Toshigawa ninja clan. She is trapped between her wish to live a normal life and her destiny to be the chosen one of the ninja clan. The story delves into Japanese culture and lore, while also maintaining all of the modernities of a near future world, which is when the story takes place.

Character Biography

Shianndrea (Jetta) is a young Japanese woman brought up into the Toshigawa ninja clan. In its history, the clan had a severe struggle with the Knave, an organization bent on bringing evil together to unite the world. At the end of feudalism the Knave was defeated by Yamoto Toshigawa. However, legend foretold that one day a descendant of Yamoto Toshigawa, would be destined to once again defeat the Knave when they rise once again. When the Toshigawa are attacked by Terminus and the Knave, she realizes the prophesy was meant for her.

Divided now between her loyalty towards her clan and her own desires, Jetta discovers that fighting her own destiny may be harder than answering to it.

You're a good artist Martheus, and I see you have an interest in Japan. But are you sure it's right to portray the Ninja as heroic? My understanding is that they were killers for hire, unlike the Samurai, who had a code of behavour. But perhaps I'm being pedantic, and you do draw well!

Thank you for the compliments.
Ninjas are traditionally seen as the bad guys. But, I wanted to put a different spin on things. The main story is set in a futuristic Japan. So, things have changed drastically. One of them being the government has been taken over by an evil demigod. Now, the ninja of the Toshigawa Clan must stop one of their own from ruling the world.
