I love the contrast between these two descriptions, lol.
Ninjak fit perfectly into the Valiant Universe. According to Ninjak writer Mark Moretti "Most of our characters aren't guys who fly around with capes and have beams coming out of their eyes. Ninjak is really a throwback to the early days of comics, where he has to use his brain and guile."

A second series was produced after VALIANT Comics was purchased by video game giant Acclaim Entertainment for $65 million. In the second series, written by Kurt Busiek, a teenager is endowed with ancient ninja powers from a video game. He is able to turn into the game's hero, Ninjak, but finds that the 12 villains from the game have also started appearing in the real world.
