Usagi Yojimbo #24

A rain-soaked standoff sets the mood on Stan Sakai's cover, where the long-eared rabbit ronin Usagi stands cloaked and resolute beneath a wide straw hat, swords at the ready against a vivid crimson sky. At his feet, a bright green praying mantis figure crouches in the downpour, adding an unexpected and intriguing dynamic to the scene. This 2010 Dark Horse collection is a fine showcase of Sakai's distinctive artistry and the enduring appeal of his feudal Japan adventure series.
