No, it's not. It is the only cover from that series that I want to hold onto. At least for now.
Well it is a stellar cover.

Congratulations on the great piece. If I'm ever in London I hope you will let me visit your Sakai museum. :D

I'm pretty impressed by my lettering back then.

It works remarkably well as a single piece of art, without the 'sequential' tag, but I think the captions add extra mystery. If you didn't know about Usagi's history, about who this rabbit samurai and 'Katsuichi' are (and even if you do) it evokes a lot of questions and possibilities. Kudos to artist and purchaser alike. :)
