Street Fighter Legends: Chun Li

There are many video game characters I like, but one that really shines is Chun-Li from Street Fighter. Undeniably, She is one of the queens of video games and 2009 promises to be the year of Chun-Li with her new live action movie and also a new comic!

The series focuses on a younger Chun-Li and one of her earliest assignments for the Hong Kong police. Along for the ride will be her partner Po-lin, a young woman who has a very personal score to settle with the terrorist Shadaloo organization. Expect this pair of lovely ladies to get into car chases, shoot outs, and plenty of fisticuffs as they fight their way to the truth about Shadaloo’s latest scheme.

But the cast isn’t made up exclusively of sexy female law officers! Fans will also get their first real looks at the lives of rarely-explored characters like Dorai, (Chun-Li’s father and fellow police officer) and Go Hibiki (the surprisingly competent father of everyone’s favorite walking joke, Dan). And, as always when dealing with Shadaloo, some well known boss characters will likely turn up to cause trouble!

Street Fighter Legends Chun #1 goes on sale January 2009, featuring covers by Omar Dogan and Kevin Lau.

As you can see in the following images, the action and the character designs are really gorgeous and follows the traditional style of CAPCOM.

I am fan of Udon since I read their other title Street Fighter Legends: Sakura, but unfortunately that series is out of print now. I am not going to miss this series and I am sure many Street Fighters fans will be on line to get this as well.
