Usagi Yojimbo #29
In "The Secret of the Green Dragon Part One," Usagi Yojimbo and Yukichi stumble upon a murder that defies logic—when the Komori assassinate a courier, they show no interest in the gems he carries. A hidden letter inside the jade dragon Usagi once recovered now points to Lord Hikiji as the mastermind behind an earlier attack on the shogun's emissary. With Chizu offering cautious aid and the ninjas closing in, the hunt for the truth becomes a race for survival. Written and illustrated by Stan Sakai, with cover art by Stan Sakai, this 2022 IDW issue blends mystery and tension in a story that deepens the ongoing intrigue.
