About This Book
"Do not look for sanctuary in anyone except yourself." - Buddha
The Buddhist nuns of the White Crane temple in China serve a single purpose: training women to fight back against the world of men. Their mission and location have been kept a secret for over two-hundred years, told by women only to other women. But now, they have sent their greatest warrior to Los Angeles. Will her dark past and feelings of unworthiness prevent her from carrying out her mission to defend the helpless? Find out in the pages of "The Shaolin Nun!"
Our first six-part story, The First Precept, introduces us to the Shaolin Nun, Mei Yin, and her disciple, Heather Turner, as they protect a kidnapped Chinese girl from a human trafficking ring.
Written by a 30-year martial arts practitioner and drawn by two members of the inaugural Milestone Initiative! Meet our entire creative team below.

Buy the Book
You won't find The Shaolin Nun in stores...yet.
The book is currently being funded through a series of Kickstarter campaigns to pay my talented art team. Once we have the first 6 issues completed, I'll take it to a publisher who will be able to put it in comic book stores EVERYWHERE!
In the meantime, although paper copies of the comics are printed on demand for our Kickstarter backers, you can still buy digital copies directly from me! Issues 1-4 are available, and the issue 5 Kickstarter will drop soon.
Digital editions are $5/each. I am not taking orders for issue #5 as I would prefer if you backed it on Kickstarter, instead.
Steps to order:
- Email me at jc@jccarter.info.
- Put Shaolin Nun digital comics in the subject line.
- Tell me which comics you want to order.
- Tell me how you want to pay. PayPal or Venmo is accepted.
I'll reply with my payment information, and once I see your $$ I'll email you the PDF(s)!
Easy enough?
