About the series
In the early 1990s, Epix published this 11-issue run of Usagi Yojimbo, the acclaimed series by creator Stan Sakai. Set in a fantastical version of feudal Japan populated by anthropomorphic animals, it follows the wandering ronin Miyamoto Usagi as he navigates honor, duty, and adventure. Sakai’s masterful blend of historical detail, samurai cinema influences, and expressive brushwork made this a standout indie comic of its era, cementing Usagi as a beloved, enduring icon of the medium.
