Usagi Yojimbo Volume 29: 200 Jizzo Ltd. Ed.

Stan Sakai

This is a signed and numbered limited edition hardcover with dust jacket cover!

Usagi Yojimbo is set in the beginning of Edo period Feudal Japan (early 17th century) with anthropomorphic animals replacing humans, and features a ronin rabbit, Miyamoto Usagi, who wanders the land as a shugyosha (student warrior on a pilgramage) occasionally selling his services as a yojimbo (bodyguard). Hence the title Usagi Yojimbo . The character of Usagi has been inspired by the famous Japanese swordsman Miyamoto Musashi while the tone and inspirations of the stories are heavily influenced by Groo the Wanderer, Lone Wolf and Cub, and the films of the acclaimed director Akira Kurosawa.

Join everyone’s favorite rabbit ronin as he continues his gripping exploits on the warrior’s path! In this volume, Usagi teams up with fan-favorite guest star Inspector Ishida to solve a double murder at a roadside inn, then helps an allied clan protect its honor, and discovers that the soy sauce business can be as deadly as it is tasty! Featured in this collection is the story Two Hundred Jizo, which celebrates Usagi’s two hundredth consecutive appearance under the masterful pen of creator Stan Sakai!
