Satan Ninjas

In my original script for this issue, back when the comic was called Shinobi Fist - Legend of the Badass Ninja, I had a trio of ski-mask wearing, gun-toting, normal ol' burglars doing the break-in. Jessica convinced me to change them into ninjas so that the comic wouldn't take so long to get to ninja action.

At the time, I envisioned our main character to be the only ninja in the comic, so I was hesitant to make the change. But I became sold once we decided on making the robbers not just ninjas, but Satan worshiping ninjas. In fact, the idea of a "Satan Ninja" amused us so much that we decided to change things so that instead of our main character magically becoming a normal ninja, he magically becomes a "satan ninja" (of sorts). That's what resulted in the comic getting a name change.
