Question About The Usagi Stories In Critters

Post by theGreatMutoh »

The Usagi stories that appear in the Critters series, have they ever been reprinted anywhere else? Or do you need to buy Critters to get them? The reason I ask is because I just found a few in the $1 bin at a comic shop and was wondering if I should get them. The Usagi stories are really short and I don't really like much else in the comics, but would like to collect as much Usagi as I can. I found issue #27 with the Nilson & Hermy story and scooped it up. But how rare are these issues? Should I grab them now while I can?

Most of the Critters stories were reprinted in collection #1. One Night in the Cold was redone in part as issue #2.6 (but hasn't appeared in a collected set), Tangled Skein was in collection #7 and Yurei was in collection #6.

One Night in the Cold was incorporated into the full-color The Lizard's Tale story (first two pages) published in Mirage issue #6. I don't think any of the Critter covers which featured Usagi were ever reprinted.

The Nilson Groundthumper and Hermy stories from Critters have never been reprinted.
