The Origin Story

In the ever-expanding universe of the comic book industry, a new entity emerged from the shadows. It is best known by one word:


"RONIN"...


Like the masterless warriors of feudal Japan, RONIN walks a path outside the shadow cast by the giants of the comic book industry. As one of the best independent comic book publishers, RONIN focuses on creator-led and high-quality comics, moving closer to an ideal industry that supports indie comic creators and fans worldwide.


The flagship franchise of the company, Steel Magnolia, will be showcased later this year. Issue #0 is a prequel story centered on the heist of a U.S. military-controlled WMD, carried out by foreign terrorists. This debut indie superhero comic release features a strong female lead, blending high-action indie comic series storytelling with the timeless struggle between good and evil—a theme that has thrilled comic book fans for decades. RONIN anticipates that Steel Magnolia will be a must-read indie comic book series, propelling the company into the spotlight.


RONIN is a rising beacon of creativity and innovation in an otherwise stagnant industry. With the support of the fandom, RONIN is determined to restore the comic book world to a more prosperous and inspiring state. By offering original graphic novels by indie artists and fostering alternative comics and graphic novels, the company is paving the way for new self-published comics in 2025 and beyond. And when RONIN stands unchallenged as the premier international outlet for comic book enthusiasts, its mission will have only just begun!!!


The path begins here...!

Jarrell discovered his love for comics during his senior year of college. To pass time between classes, he'd read multiple webcomics and slowly began contemplating creating his own comic.
