Ninjas Have IssuesBy Greg Stones

Ninjas are awesome—stealthy, cunning experts of inltra-tion and close combat. But like us all, they must sometimesgrapple with the small but signicant problems of everydaylife. For instance, ninjas have issues with squirrels. They

also have trouble with chimneys, pigeons, blow darts, andmimes. They really like hiding, going undercover, andpiñatas, but have MAJOR issues with samurai, giant ght-ing robots, and unicorns. Through it all, they secretly longfor just one thing. Author of the breakout hitZombies HateStuff, Greg Stones turns his popular, playfully absurd illus-tration style to the badass but surprisingly issue-fraughtworld of ninjas, detailing their inner lives and mortal combatwith a subversive sense of the absurd.

Greg Stones is an artist and the author of Zombies Hate Stuff,
