New to Usagi Yojimbo

Hey guys. I remember Usagi somewhat from old tmnt cartoons but never got into the comics so much. Recently I came across some of Sakai's work. I love the visual style to it. Is there a trade paperback I should start with if I want to read the stories of Usagi? Thanks for any input.

There are about 18 trade paperbacks, I believe. If you are like me and would like to "catch up" sooner than you can afford to buy them all, try your public library. There is one near hear that has several of the tpbs. Most libraries now can even get books from other libraries in their state through interlibrary loans.

That is a good idea to hit up my local library. I got a hold of Allred's Oddity Oddessy there. Thanks for the tip.

I suppose that would be a good place to start. I appreciate the link.

I knew it must have been something like that.
