In the distant past, a Japanese samurai (Phil LaMarr) embarks on a mission to defeat the evil shape-shifting wizard Aku (Mako and Greg Baldwin). Before he can complete his task, though, he is catapulted thousands of years into the future. He finds himself in a world where Aku now enjoys complete power over every living thing. Dubbing himself "Jack", he sets out on a new quest - to right the wrongs that have been done by his enemy, and to find a way back to his own time so he can destroy the evil for good.

It's been 50 years since we last saw Samurai Jack and time has not been kind to him. Aku has destroyed every time portal and Jack has stopped aging, a side effect of time travel. It seems he is cursed to just roam the land for all eternity. His past haunts him as well as a cult of assasins dedicated to killing him for Aku's glory.

I saw the pilot of Heroes at Comic Con last year (the one included on the DVD set), and knew it was going to be a big hit. I tracked down executive producer Jeph Loeb and said, "Jeph, make sure they do a good job on the DVDs!!" Well, Jeph and the folks at Universal came through. The set contains featurettes, interviews, the unaired pilot, deleted scenes...and the HD DVD version includes commentaries, artwork presentations, character connections, and more!
