Hey all, I can't remember if there was a previous running post that covered all upcoming releases, but maybe this would be an easy place to track things. Or maybe this is 100% selfishly motivated, and I'm asking folks to populate a thread that would make it easy for ME to track things, since I am terrible at staying informed.

I just checked the Previews website and Dark Horse, and the only thing I can see in the pipeline is:

Ten Thousand Plums TPB + Ltd HC, Nov 25, 2025


I am really happy to see the Dojo forum back in business. Hope to see everyone here often, as I've backed away from FB and many other online distractions.

You're not the only one who has trouble keeping track! I rely heavily on other people for the past few years.

That's all I've seen listed also.

I've found the Previews online site to be virtually worthless these days, and I haven't really found another reliable site.

The Dark Horse "upcoming" sections for books and comics are probably the best places to check for upcoming Usagi releases.

I think Stan might be doing some guest covers for other books, but I don't keep track of those. Maybe someone who has attended a comic con might be able to fill in the void here.

For upcoming covers (which I keep updated at the top of this page), we have:

(tbd 2025) Shi: Gatecrasher

(tbd) Powers 25 #6

2025.09.17 I Hate Fairyland #44

For announced Usagi release dates, we have:

2025.11.25 Ten Thousand Plums HC/TPB

Stan mentioned in the Discord that he is working on the next Usagi storyline (Honor of the Arrow) for an early 2026 release, but it hasn't been announced by DH yet. The third Space Usagi color issues have been delayed by DH for some reason.

Finally, we have things that were mentioned at SDCC, but not officially announced yet:

The Art of Stan Sakai (Kickstarter this month/Sept., according to the slide)

Usagi Yojimbo: Taiko '84 (March 2026 according to the slide)

Nice, thank you for all that intel, Kyle.
Those unofficially announced projects both have me super interested to learn more when the time comes.
Was there a new sketchbook at San Diego this year, or is #17 still the latest one?
