Usagi Yojimbo #21

In "Yukichi," Usagi Yojimbo discovers a surprising family connection when he learns his long-lost cousin, Yukichi, has emerged from the shadows of the Paikonyaki School. With a bounty on those loyal to Lord Mifune, the school's embittered students seek to claim it by challenging Usagi—only for Yukichi to take a decisive stand by killing the school's master, Takao. Now, with a new bond forged in blood and circumstance, Yukichi chooses to join Usagi on his journey. Written and illustrated by Stan Sakai, with cover art by Stan Sakai, this 2021 IDW issue blends quiet revelation with rising tension, all in the signature style of the series.
