Usagi Yojimbo DojoBoard

I remember what made me start reading Usagi Yojimbo:

A pal told me about an issue that came out sometime last year where the entire month's book was a wordless, step by step depiction of Usagi performing a tea ceremony. When I heard that, I immediately decided I needed to read this book and started at the beginning.

It seemed beautiful and minimalistic, like Tales of the TMNT issue 5 with the high contrast black and white, stand alone story where Leo gets blinded by a ninja and does battle. A good read and a powerful issue if you haven't seen it.

. . . which is why I would like to track down this UY tea ceremony issue!

Let me know, folks!

Apr/2006 issue # 93 Chanoyu

It was reprinted in Usagi Yojimbo Book 22: Tomoe's Story

I read that story on new year's eve for the first time, though I knew about it longer..it is very beautiful I agree...and for the tmnt leonardo blind saga that jumped out of that tales #5...that was magnificant, too!!!I only know leonardo:blind sight number one, which was an issue of tales, formely, too....so I don't know the rest of it since the tpb sold out before I even knew about it, but the start was really good;)
have you read the whole story?

The TMNT Blindsight miniseries seemed forced. It was entertaining, but not as powerful as the stand-alone issue.

Thanks for the information! If that was issue 93 that's a bit older than just last year, right? Time to hit the back issue bins!

well, then I'll have to try to track it down and get it some day;).....

If you weren't in Germany, I'd let you borrow it!

tough luck;:)but I guess it is in my karma to read that comic once in my life;)do you have a lot of turtles comics?
one of my all time favourites is the leonardo issue one in a micro series...rooftops in snow, he alone on christmas, no dialogue in the upper three quarters of each page, fantastic issue....
