Walt Simonson Plugs Usagi Yojimbo

Post by Colin Solan »

Walt and Louise Simonson did a panel last weekend at the CGS SuperShow and Walt plugged Usagi Yojimbo as the only comic book he currently follows.

The podcast can be found at the link. He mentions Usagi at the 49:03 mark but the whole panel is really interesting and fun, especially if you followed the Simonsons' work in the 80s.

Walt and Louise have supported Usagi for a long time. Walt also has the coolest signature in comics (it's a dinosaur).

I'll be taking Walt's class in the fall (starting in Sept. I believe). He's getting back in the saddle on teaching comics again.
