Blevins has combined with veteran writer Justin Jordan and Team Liquid comic artist Felipe Maga\u00f1a to launch his first graphic story, based around a fictional version of the Mixer streamer receiving a \u201cmysterious contraption\u201d that teleports Ninja into a battle royale arena. While the battle royale this version of Ninja is \u201cthe undisputed champion\u201d of doesn\u2019t seem exactly like Fortnite, and looks to be based more around swordplay and ninjas than building and guns, it\u2019s pretty clear the streaming star has stuck to what he knows best. The opening pages of the story depict a gung-ho playing the virtual battle royale alongside a number of fictional friends, including Liza \u2018Lizard\u2019 Mearkle, Josh \u2018Dozer\u2019 Dyson, and Holland \u2018Killer\u2019 Keller, as well as a mysterious ally named Zephyr.

Ninja\u2019s storyline is nothing new, with Hollywood franchises like Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and Spy Kids 3D taking the story to the big screen, but readers will likely be picking up the book to see just how he puts the spin on the age-old \u2018out-of-body\u2019 adventure. There\u2019s also good news for fans that already enjoyed the first 14-page glimpse into Ninja\u2019s graphic novel adventure, as the minds behind the \u2018Most Dangerous Game\u2019 release have already confirmed this is just the first book in a new series based around the Mixer star. While there\u2019s no indication the sequels will also see Ninja drop into a Fortnite-like arena, the book\u2019s press release suggests all of them will be based around \u201cexciting gaming adventures with the fate of the world at stake\u201d \u2014 talk about ramping up a video game\u2019s stakes.
