Usagi Yojimbo

Book • 2010
The Usagi Yojimbo follows a samurai who has lost his master in battle and is now doing the warrior's pilgrimage, going from town to town.

The comic is set in feudal Japan during the Edo period.

He occasionally hires his swords out, sometimes simply getting caught up in a situation, sometimes seeking out good things to do.

The stories have an amazing amount of characters along the way.

Usagi Yojimbo is a rabbit. It is a really good, mature, grown-up story.
