White Ninja was a webcomic written and drawn by Scott Bevan and Kent Earle from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. It is part of the National Lampoon Humor Network. The comic is also part of Dayfree Press and ran exclusive strips on Cracked.com between August 2008 and April 2009.
White Ninja has over 1300 comics in the archive and over 2000 fan-art submissions.
The comic went on hiatus after March 21, 2012. One new comic appeared on July 13, 2012, followed by another on August 14, though none have since followed.
A year later, on August 14, 2013, an announcement was posted on the White Ninja homepage stating that the series was "officially on hiatus" with an "official apology coming soon". It also stated, however, that the comic archive will remain open during the hiatus. [2]
Premise
The comic stars the ninja of the title. He is always seen wearing a white ninja suit that includes a shirt with a hood that covers the entire head except his eyes. Despite his name and appearance, White Ninja is almost never seen to perform any martial arts, or even show an awareness of them - instead, he is commonly seen in some daily life routine or a far-fetched situation; either of which frequently end in non sequitur. There is no plot or continuity between strips, with each strip completely unrelated to the previous. Due to the surreal nature of the comic, many strips outright contradict each other, with White Ninja's age, occupation, family, gender, shape and even species changing from one strip to the next.
