True. This whole comic could be thought of as a work-in-progress up until we released the final print version. Although we're going to try to avoid retcons, if we think of a change that's in the best interest of the comic, and wouldn't require too much effort, then we'll do it. Hopefully we'll show a bit more restraint with this than George Lucas.

I don't think there will be much need to work things around.  It seems like a long time going week to week but really you have 3 story lines going inside of 50 pages so that'll read quick as one piece. 

I love this page. I was wondering how the glove would activate, and this scenario is not one I had thought of.  Keep us readers on our toes.

Here's a bit of trivia for you. For a long time, back when this comic was called "Shinobi Fist: Legend of the Badass Ninja" we were going to have the glove activate when Eddie says "Shinobi." So during this scene, after he wakes up, Sam would have said something along the lines of, "Hey, that's a rad glove. It kinda makes you look like Dude Shinobi." And Eddie would have responded with, "I don't look like Dude Shinobi." But of course, upon saying "Shinobi" he would undergo the transformation into a magical ninja (without the satanic element, since we hadn't decided on that yet). Then Sam would have exclaimed, "See?! You totally look like Dude Shinobi!" Har-har. We would have also made it so that for awhile he thinks the activation word is "Dude Shinobi." It would have taken him awhile to figure out that it was just "Shinobi."

Once we decided to change Eddie from a "normal" ninja into an infernal ninja, that's when we decided to re-think how the glove gets activated, and we came up with this.

Another bit of trivia. When we decided to add the satanic element to Eddie's glove, we briefly considered calling the comic something like "Demon Fist: Legend of the Badass Ninja" but we discovered that there's already a comic called Demon Fist, so there went that idea.

It just means what you're doing is relevant in today's comicverse!

Look at it this way: "Demon Fist" lends itself to a disgusting parody called "Fist Demon" and I don't think you want to be the subject of that sort of smut..

Very cool stuff.  I always assumed it would activate in a tense situation like another altercation with Dean or something similar to that.  I like all the names and modifications you guys have taken on this journey.  Your willingness to share the creation process is awesome.  I like to think that someday when this comic is the biggest thing in the world that reporters will be coming to some of us "fans" for comments being those of us that have been here from the beginning will be Satan Ninja "experts".
