To the best of my recollection, Stan's characters Nilson Groundthumper and Hermy have only made one appearance in the ongoing Usagi Yojimbo series. Can you name the story and page where this
"special appearance" took place?
Hint 1: They may look a little different than you're used to.
Let the page flipping begin!

Great challenge! I flipped through 16 TPB at lunch today and didn't find the answer. But I had forgotten how many other "guest" cameos there are. Lots of fun. I think I saw Groo three times already. And Maus. Not to mention a few others, but we should save that for a future trivia contest.
Peace, maka

I seriously probably searched on the internet for half and hour and I STILL have no idea were the cameo is! I don't have many of the books so I'll keep looking around...

I know I've seen numerous cameos, but I'd have to look through every story to find this one....

I know what the number of the issue is, but I don't know what the story was called or what page they appeared on.

Final hint: They can be found hanging around Dr. Takenoko.

Another week of trivia has come and gone. I received correct answers from Maka and Mayhem. Since Maka was first he gets to ask the next question.
Your prize is knowing that I couldn't stump you.

Great stuff! Is that a slightly modified Totaro in there as well?

Oh man, I doubt I would have recognized Nilson as such. Still, an excellent question.
