We're wrapping up Image Month in style with an awesome interview with AJ Lieberman and Riley Rossmo of Cowboy Ninja Viking! Here's the skinny on CNV: Tasked with creating a counter-intelligence unit, Dr. Sebastian Ghislain turned to those long thought useless to society: patients with Multiple Personality Disorder, which he transforms into assassins called "Triplets." Now all but one of these Triplets has gone rogue, and it's up to Cowboy Ninja Viking to find and stop this band of ridiculously disturbed–but highly effective–assassins!

Sometimes you happen upon a new title that at first makes you scoff at the premise. Then, after thinking about it, you just know you've got to check it out–if for nothing more than to satisfy your curiosity. That's why I'm jazzed about Cowboy Ninja Viking, from Image Comics.
Here's the lowdown: It started with Dr. Sebastian Ghislain: rogue psychotherapist/covert op/DJ. Tasked with creating a counter-intelligence unit, he turned to those long thought useless to society . . . patients with Multiple Personality Disorder.
Media Release -- This October Image Comics’ newest hero shows just one personality may not be enough to save the world in the all new series from AJ Lieberman, writer of BATMAN: HUSH RETURNS, and PROOF artist Riley Rossmo: COWBOY NINJA VIKING!
"COWBOY NINJA VIKING is everything I look for in a series to bring to Image," Image Vice-President Jim Valentino said. "There is absolutely nothing else on the stands that looks or reads remotely like COWBOY NINJA VIKING, especially given its Golden Age dimensions and format. I certainly can’t think of any other titles featuring schizophrenic heroes combating evil with no less than three personalities.”
