UY Book 5

Post by Stan Sakai »

The newly designed UY Book 5 has just been printed, and should be on the stands very soon.

Book 7 is expected to be reprinted within the year, then all the Fantagraphics editions will have the new design.

Are there any places online where we can see a sample of the new cover?

I don't like the new Fantagraphics deign as much as the original. I was able to find the original TPB's of 1, 3, and 4 though.

I still have a lot of the originals which I will bring to San Diego, along with just a few copies with the new covers.

I'll be sure to go to SDCC someday just to get some. By the way, why did they recolor the armor Usagi, Mifune, and Gunuchi are wearing on the Book 2 cover? It originally looked fancy with gold and strong colors, and they made it look all fruity and kid-oriented.
