I have several comic books here that my sis sent me from Indonesia. It is
originally written in either Japanese or Chinese. The title is (drum roll)
Street Fighters. The story goes as follows (sorry for the grammatical errors,
I have no time to re-read it):

There is this guy called AKEN who has mastered SF][ as perfect as a human
being can possibly get. He then get trapped by the evil Bison. He is warped
into the latest and ultimate Street Fighter game, where every characters
are real. AKEN assume the role as Ken when he was faced with the choice. 
Up to this point, all other characters are bad guys. Apparently, Bison
wants to capture AKEN's soul and put it into a bullet which can home in to
its target. All 7 original characters + Vega are then hot on his pursuit.
[The end of Book 1]
AKEN is a runaway man now. His pursuers split up and begin the search for
him. During these sequences, we are given the impression that Ryu is
acting in a mysterious way - Honda is coming on to Chun Li, but she rejects
him with no second thoughts - and Guile starts to doubt his own actions. 
Bison turned out is not the utmost master. He is under the commands of
a Master Computer. There is also this Professor character whose work
(The MC) is being misused but he is actually a good hearted man (sounds
familiar?). The next significant scene is when the street fighters catch up
with AKEN. All hells break lose. Ryu doesn't join the fight. He just
stands over a lamp post and watch. Chun Li betrays the MC and starts helping
AKEN (Hooray...Now you know which character I used most). Still, the fight
is obviously unbalanced. During some critical moment, Guile follows Chun Li's
steps. He sonic kicks Dhalsim's wrist and seperate it from his arm. Meanwhile,
the professor is killed by a homing-bullet made by Bison. This activates his
computer image of himself (meaning he exists in AKEN's world)  and an ultimate 
fighting android called Tenu. His image then (You guessed it!) helps AKEN 
fights against Vega & Co. AKEN, Chun Li, and the Professor manage to escape,
but Guile becomes a POW. AKEN and the professor then ride a motorbike and
get captured again, thanks to Dhalsim with his variable-length arm. The story-
line then moves to HongKong, where the real (life) Sagat and Balrog can be
found roaming around trying to find Tenu. Sagat's eye and scars are explained
as follows: Once he fought against 40 people. He survived and the scars are
there to prove it. (IMHO, I prefer EGM's version of this - He got it from
Ryu's Dragon Punch).
[The End of Book 2]
The story starts out with an attempt by the MC to strip AKEN's soul. This is
done by taking over his body fragment piece by piece (Imagine a completed
jigsaw puzzle, then imagine you pull the piece one by one until they are
all gone). With the help of the professor, AKEN is able to concentrate
and free his soul of Ken's body. The MC then sends out several big nasty
computer guards to reacpture him. AKEN tries to concentrate and
sucks all the pieces of Ken's body fragment into his body. He does it so
hard that not only Ken's fragment get sucked in but also the prof's and the
guards'. Now, we have a Super Ken. Timely enough, the loyal fighters are coming
in to fight him, but they are no match for AKEN who can now throw fireballs
as fast as he wants. Then we move to another site, the MC center core. Here,
we learned Vega's fate. The MC tortured him and made him lost his both legs
and arms. His body is rotting but he is still alive and moaning. Now back to
Hong Kong. Sagat and Balrog manage to find to find Tenu. Sagat fires off his
Tiger Blade to Tenu but instead hit a couple of lover and slashed them in two
(waist above and below). Tenu has this special power: He can turned his
left hand into a blade (ala-T-1000) and his right hand into a drill. During
the fights, Balrog's 'favourite' Boxing Glove got torn off by the blade
and Sagat's Arm is seperated (also by the blade).
[End of Book 3]

I haven't got the continuations yet but my sis promise to send them to me as
soon as they are out. I believe it will involve some Ninja and Saint Seiya 
(This name doesn't ring any bell for me, but some of my friends said
that he is a character from another game and he is quite popular).

Hope you guys enjoy this post,
