Deep in the badlands of a mashed up world of samurai meets ghetto sci-fi, a young child (Afro) sees his father, the Number One samurai, cut down by a man named Justice. As the thought of revenge burns deep inside Afro, he changes from innocent child to vengeful warrior, hell bent on finding the man who rolled his father’s severed head in the dust before him. Through five action packed episodes, Afro battles to find the Number One headband; not for its mystical power, but for a final, bloody showdown with Justice.

This edition has been created from the original artwork used in the making of the feature and in a world first - signed by Samuel L Jackson! There are only 100 pieces worldwide, so don't miss this exclusive artwork.

As a special treat for all ANIME fans, we will be hosting an evening with the creator of Afro Samurai, Takashi Okasaki, on Friday 19th October 2007. Any piece purchased before the event will be signed by the master himself as well. An incredible opportunity not to be missed.

AFRO SAMURAI is the coolest, the hippest and the bloodiest anime to come out of Japan in quite some time – and maybe ever. With a fast, action-packed storyline, a dream-like quality to the animation, and the spectacular voices of the uber-cool Samuel L. Jackson, the bone-chillingly evil Ron Perlman (Hellboy, Alien Resurrection), and the ultra-sexy Kelly Hu (X Men 3), Afro has quickly become a major worldwide hit. Add a Hip Hop/Soul/Rock soundtrack especially composed by The RZA (Wu Tang Clan, Kill Bill) and you can see why Afro commanded one of the biggest budgets anime has ever seen. Cutting edge animation, top Hollywood cast, a pumping sound track and a great story - it doesn’t get better than this!
