Re: Kids and Usagi

I'm reading book 9 at the moment and I began to wonder. Are there any folks here who has kids and they read your Usagi books? Sensei, do your kids like to read Usagi? I have two daughters, aged 10 & 6. They appreciate my comic mania and, as all kids like to, have their own individual "fabo...

Congrats to Mr. Sakai for the Comic Art Museum retrospective, you certainly have earned it! It’s such a unique little unassuming place that has really done honors to the artist and their wonderful talents. An old girlfriend of mine once bought me an “SF Weekend”, the highlight of which was a Will E...

Any .mp3's floating around?

Hey everybody. I’m here at work and I have run out of things to listen to ((or, more to the point, am tired of the same ol'-same ol')) so I was curious if anyone has any links to podcasts of interviews with Mr. Sakai? Or perhaps there exists links to some podcasts of UY reviews or discussions? Pleas...

Sounds like a great idea for an Inspector Ishida mystery! THAT'S his name!!! ((thanks for the assist)) - i noticed he's not included in The Cast http://usagiyojimbo.com/characters.html section of the board, unless my lazy eyes happened to miss him. He is probably my favorite character behind Usagi.

Seriously, I have spent the past two hours with a smile on my face simply because this place exists and is so thorough with information, art, and the likeminded fans of Usagi Yojimbo. I can only imagine what its been like for those of you following this incredible book from the beginning, but for so...

Without any thought o what it would involve, or any plot or characters...I've always been a fan of the "backwards" gimmick. I'd liek to read a UY story that started with the ending, maybe just an image of usagi wiping blood from his blade or something, and then through the pages we see the...

Thanks

Hey thanks! Normally I would have just made an "introduction post", and I feel like i should have. I kinda feel I was a bit rude coming and posting a "review" here at the UY home site. So...I am Corky. I’ve been reading UY for only a few months but I have read avidly all that I c...

My love affair with a samurai rabbit

Hello all! I am new to this forum and fairly new to Usagi Yojimbo. Since October I have read 16 of the trades and collected a dozen issues from various local shops. It is easily one of my top 3 books and one that has NEVER disappointed me. I am eagerly awaiting the SF Comic-Con in February where I'l...
