Usagi Yojimbo DojoBoard

The gentleman above will start off this weeks scavenger hunt. You will first need to determine his name and the total number of letters in his first and last names combined. Once you have this number, head to the corresponding Fantagraphics issue of Usagi and determine the final word that is found inside a speech bubble in the Usagi story. The number of letters in this word will now lead you to a corresponding Usagi Yojimbo Saga collection and the final answer to this weeks scavenger hunt. PM me the three comic creators which provided introductions in this collection. Since you technically could keep sending in answers until you get it right, I will limit the number of answers to one this week. Good luck and hopefully this is fun. I will give out some hints as we move along in the week if it seems like I may not get any answers.

Oohhh! Scavenger hunts are fun!

LOL, creative thinking!

No one has sent in an answer yet so I will throw out a clue

The gentleman above appeared in only one issue (as far as I know) and the issue told his whole story

Steve Hubbell is the first person with a correct answer

Gaffey has sent in the second correct answer

Recognise the character, can't recall the story offhand... if I get time, I might be able to flick through...

That's where I'm at as well. I recognize him, but can't recall where from.

Edit: Ah ha! I just realised who he is!

You don't have to own the comics to figure out who he is. I found it online.

A couple hours left...

Well another scavenger hunt is over and I had two correct answers and one really close answer

Here is the breakdown of the answer

The gentleman was the One-Armed Swordsman Mizuna Takashi (13 letters)

The final word in a bubble was "EEP!" (3 letters)

Which led you to Usagi Yojimbo Saga Volume 3 and finally
Paul Dini
Greg Rucka
Scott Shaw!

Steve Hubbell and Gaffey supplied correct answers this week and per the random number generator
