Usagi Spin-off book?

Post by Inukai79 »

For Stan (or whoever). Will there ever be an Usagi spin-off series or mini-series that allows other creators to try his/her hand at the rabbit ronin? It could be like "Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight" or "Hellboy: Weird Tales."
How about it Stan, maybe? :wink:

Editor Diana and I talked about this a couple of years ago. I was to be a mini-series called Usagi Yojimbo: Kagemusha (Shadow Warriors), drawn by other artists.

I never got past the "Hey it would be neat if ___________ drew an Usagi story."

I could possibly see Eric Powell possibly doing a Sasuké the Demon Queller story, it would fit his "Goon" story telling style.

I'd love to see an Usagi story done by the Groop, with Checho on scribbles, ME on words/translation, Luth on colors, and The Nicest Guy in Comics on word balloons. Did I err... not!

Imagine a Dave Sim Usagi story too. That would be too cool.

And Steve Gallacci doing a Space Usagi episode, or even a limited series as guest artist with Stan on plot. Too much to ask for?
