UY 113: "Snitch"

Unfortunately, I do not know how to add this cool preview of the b/w cover art for issue #113 to the coming up section, but I can post it here for everyone to enjoy.

Once Shogun Todd gets back from his expedition outside the country, we can get the image uploaded to it's correct spot.

There should be a lot of good speculating on this issue since there isn't a story synopsis available yet.

Usagi seems to be rolling his eyes because he is finally fed up with Gen and Stray Dog's constant bickering, it almost looks like he is praying for divine intervention (or maybe to be put out of his misery)

Ya also know that sneaky little snitch (Gen's little buddy) has been up to something......

Hey, that snitch's got a name (at least in Space Usagi); I doubt that he can be seriously called Gen's buddy, although he seems to be strangely fond of Toady's deviousness. :lol:

Sadly, that admirable character will be obscured by the title on the actual comic; :wink:
Dear Sensei, has anybody placed an offer for that cover already? If not, I'd very much like to purchase it, if possible....

(You can tell, I really am a fan of Toady!)

I was going to ask the same thing. :P That cover is awesome.

Usagi's more cartoony than usual.

Usagi's expression is a classic. It just screams, "The hell with this. I'm gonna slice my belly open."

I only saw this,

WOWOWOWOWOWWO!!!!!!!!!

I adore it !!

with this thick inking and cartoon expression that is contrasting with the background, This look like very funny, it makes me think of some old movie poster.

I understand well why you want guys to get this piece, it is a really marvelous cover indeed.

According to CBR, this issue won't be solicited by Dark Horse for June. Dark Horse does not have it for their upcoming comics in June either, so the estimated date in the Coming Up section should probably say somewhere in July at this point, pushing all the following issues back a month as well.

In short, it looks like June is a skip month.

Thanks for the info! I usually estimate release dates myself. When I usually get info on an issue, it's usually well in advance of any actual publication release info.
