Usagi Yojimbo #165

A story of murder, double-crosses, unexpected allies, and the mystery of the one known as ''The Master'' . . . it all ends here! Usagi and Ishida are hot on the trail of the stolen silver when they run into the Black Goblin Gang. Will justice ultimately be served--or is all hope lost for the daring duo?

* The latest installment of a new Ishida mystery!

Any thoughts or comments on this issue and/or the 3 part Mouse Trap story?

Dear UYDers,

Quick thoughts: I like the continue use of hanafuda cards as weapon. There are some great fight scenes. Some mysteries are not solved, so more stories to look forward too. And the Stan & Julie story ended in this issue too. That was fantastic. The color art on the back of the cover is awesome. And I love how Usagi is one of those comics that doesn’t have ads in it. Peace, maka

I usually wait for a story to finish before I read all the issues.... so I have not read anything of this story arc yet. I hope to do that this weekend and will get back with my thoughts & comments.

I loved this one. Great buildup towards the end, it felt like a good old detective TV show. I can't wait to find out who the master is. I guess that's the next arc, aptly named 'the hidden'.

I need to reread this whole arc. For some reason my shop didn't have any copies of #164 (they ahd 163 and 165) so i had to go digital with that one.

I'm looking forward to the build up of the new 12 issue series. I feel like its been a long time story wise since Usagi has had a big event. Or had any dealings with Hijiki.

I know fans have always like Inspector Inshida. He's never been my favorite, but i'm coming around to him.

I wonder when Saga Volume 8 is supposed to come out. It would be 29,30 and 31 correct?

Inspector Ishida is my all time favorite supporting character, and I'm happy to see him back in the mix.
These mystery stories are always a lot of fun.
