I haven't been an active member of this forum for some time so I apologize if I am posting this to the wrong area.
Way back when before the revamp of the web site there was a section (I believe called “Calendar of Events”) that posted all of the Usagi future releases along with Stan the man's guest appearances.
This was particularly useful as I could track when the next graphic novel was to be released.
So....
1. Any thoughts of getting that back online?
2. When is the next Usagi Graphic Novel due out?
Thanks!

We decided way back when to do away with that on the UYD for one main reason: Dark Horse is already doing it! We instead now link to DHC's Usagi Zone for much of the new release info. If it's not there then most likely we don;t know about it either! So in order to eliminate redundancy, we opted to do away with new releases and focus our efforts on other stuff. Maybe we need to link better to DHC's info!

That seems like the obvious choice. Thanks for letting me know.

I think that the Dark Horse Comic's Usagi Yojimbo Zone is very well maintained and does a great job of listing forthcoming issues and books in the series as well as other related material AS LONG AS IT IS PUBLISHED BY DARK HORSE COMICS.
Unfortunately, Stan Sakai's character Usagi tends to wander sometimes, and then the Dark Horse web-site falls short. Short stories like the ones published in the Drawing the Line (Cooking Lesson) or the More Fund Comics (Ninja Hunt) benefit books, or the cover contribution to the In the Zone benefit book, the pin-up (non-usagi) in the No Honor tpb, and all of the projects Stan worked on and were published by Oni press are all items that would / could never be listed on the Dark Horse ran web-site.
Stan's own contributions to this forum tends to provide more information on upcoming projects, convention appearances, and interviews by web-based or conventional publications than any other web-site, Dark Horse''s Usagi Yojimbo Zone included, currently being maintained.
Abayo...
