Dear Friends and Fans of the IMMORTAL YI SOON SHIN:
My name is Onrie Kompan and I am currently working on a comic book about Korea's greatest hero, Admiral Yi Soon Shin.
This is a series that sets out to define a real life hero in the realm of comics. YI SOON SHIN is inspired by the popular TV drama but tells a very different story that will be interesting for both new readers and fans of the show!
For more information, please feel free to visit my website (http://www.onrie-kompan.com) or contact me directly at OLKompan@aol.com.
Thanks for your support!
Best Regards,
Onrie Kompan

ginnycat5,
Right now we are in the process of finding a publisher to print and distribute our book.
Our goal is to have the book released no later than the first quarter of 2010.
Feel free to send me your email and I will personally inform you with updates.
You can reach me at OLKompan@aol.com.
Thanks again!
Best,
Onrie
