It was Japan in 1582. Oda Nobunaga was a cruel and bloodthirsty warlord. In his efforts to unify Japan, he slaughtered thousands of innocent men, women, and children, even killing the Sohei warrior monks of the Hiei Monastery and killing the head of the Toshigawa clan. The evil Oda Nobunaga was killed by a poisoned arrow at Honno-Ji Temple, shot by Tokoshi Toshigawa. This sacred arrow has been protected through the ages as it holds the key to unlock great evil.
Fast forward to present day Japan. After years of undisturbed peace, an unknown evil threatens Honno-Ji again. Tenkai, a mysterious monk, must call on the help of a descendant of the Sohei (Shi) & the descendant of the Toshigawa (Jetta) to honor an age-old promise to protect the Arrow of Nobunaga.

Martheus and Kevin on Live at 9
We got the opportunity to sit down with Live at 9 of WREG news 3 this morning to talk about Defiance, the movie based on the graphic novel, Jetta. It was a very good interview as we explained how we started and how the book made the leap from idea to printed page to film. Take a look at our interview on our media page.
We will be also updating the web stories a little later this weekend. Sorry for the lateness. We will resume our regular schedule next Friday as always!
