Ninjak Timing?
So question I have... when is the new Ninjak series taking place? The current part of the story, I mean.
Possible answer... post-Unity/Book of Death. We learn the Ninjak goes off the grid for several months, I believe. Could the assumed dissolution of Unity grant him the freetime to go on such an undertaking? Prior to that he seems to be in the good graces of MI-6, unlike the status we see now.

Seems likely. Either that, or this takes place prior to the assembling of the current Unity team.Keith wrote:So question I have... when is the new Ninjak series taking place? The current part of the story, I mean.

Re: Ninjak Timing?
Yeah, I figured that the current volume of Ninjak takes place either post-Unity or at the same time as it ends, if it ends because the team drifts apart.

Re: Ninjak Timing?
Refresh my memory: Is there any reference to his Unity teammates? I don't understand why Naville is answering to other bosses at MI6. Wasn't him made THE boss after the vine reveal?

Oh. I can't remember if it's Ninjak or Aric that find some alien conspiracy dude and put him in charge. Retcon so soon?

Re: Ninjak Timing?
Hmmm....considering Ninjak seems to be having some memory issues regarding his time with the monk, is it possible the main story takes place between the events of XO: Enter Ninjak and the launch of Unity? While the "secret files" take place prior to his XO introduction, but he is unaware of most of it (such as his meeting with Neville)?
