"Glimpses of Death" as mentioned Wizard #153

Post by Dranatha »

Stan,

Am I missing somthing or was the Wizard article wrong when it said that you would be doing a four part series called "Glimpses of Death" starting with issue #76. I have #76&77 and don't remember that to be the story. I also have read previews for #78 and #79 and they don't mention this story arc either. Where do they get there info?

Also in Wizard #153 on page 152 is a spotlight on Usagi :D Yeah! But then they muck it up with a complete list of all Usagi appearances. They list Command Review #1, which I have and know that Usagi does not appear and they get the series numbers wrong also. They also list some stuff I am not sure about. I collect all Usagi appearances so I want to know if these are real:

Cutey Bunny #4
Dark Horse Extra #14, 31, 45
Shanda the Panda #4 (I have #10 Stan cover with Usagi as stuffed toy)

Does anyone know about these supposed appearances? :?

Thanks,

Dranatha

The trade collection after UY Book 19: Father & Son will be called Glimpses of Death. This will collect the short and single issue stories that will appear in UY #76-81 (or 82). Apparently, there was some miscommunication somewhere.

I don't remember Usagi appearing in those issues, but then I don't really keep track of his appearances.

Dark Horse Extra#14 - (not sure about this) I think Usagi was included in a Dark Horse Mavericks poster in this issue.

Dark Horse Extra #31 - Demon Mask poster in this issue...

Dark Horse Extra #45 - part 1 of "A Lesson in Courtesy", with part 4 finishing up the story in #48.

Dark Horse Extra #20 through #23 - "Tsuru" (not listed)

Shanda the Panda #4 might be the issue with a cameo of Usagi Yojimbo drawn by someone besides Stan Sakai?

Usagi is in Command Review and Cutey Bunny 4

Dear Reader,
Command Review #1 has Usagi on the back cover, check it out.
The picture of Usagi in the bottom right panel is also the same picture in Cutey Bunny 4.
I think this is the same image used for the first Usagi t shirt.
There are many other Usagi appearances not listed in Wizard 153.
Thank you for the fun.
Best wishes,
go
