Give in to Kung Fu Noir! Juan Jin's nightmare has only just begun. Not only he's been drugged and brought from Hong-Kong to the United States illegally, but he now has to go through humiliation, rudeness and brutality of New York's Sing Sing Prison guards. And if it wasn't enough, everyone's after him and the Golden Dragon statue he's mysteriously connected to. Darkness calls Juan Jin... Will he give in?
There is a subtle change of art by Fred Pham Chuong as the environment changes from Hong Kong to New York City. The major spotlight for the comic reveals itself towards the later half of this issue.
