Thanks for taking the time to compile that. Or cutting and pasting it, or whatever you did.

Wow, Stan Lee did the introduction to Book Five?

Sweet!

Just out of curiosity, did he write EXCELSIOR! at the end of the introduction? Just curious. X3

I spent most of Easter at my brother's home, and I took advantage of being there to copy the content pages of the 19 volumes of Usagi Yojimbo I've given my nephews over the last several years. Then I typed them all into the computer when I got home.

Hmmm...I've read 1, 2, 4, 6, 16 and 19.

I really wish I'd read 6 before 19, heh.

Wow, great job Steve. It certainly puts the entire Usagi saga in persepective. As well as seeing all the creators that have appreciated this book over the years. Matt Wagner wrote two!

Thanks Steve.

That's just a typo.

Thanks for catching that. I was in a bit of a hurry and didn't notice the mistake. The typo has been corrected!

Does anyone know if the 4 page "Origin Tale" from volume 3, issue #1 is reprinted in book #10? I thought it was, but I managed to leave it off the notes I made yesterday when I had the book in front of me.

Abayo.....

Yeah, it's the first story before Kaiso.
