The Andres' Usagi is SO beautiful! And the little Spot looking at him is such a cutie. Love it, love it, love it^_^ Where these pics published in a book somwhere? It would be wonderful to have a print of it!

These were all published in the 2004 Comic Con International San Diego Program, which is still frequently up on ebay. There was a Usagi Yojimbo 20th anniversary tribute gallery in the program. I think I've scanned all the images, except the one Stan contributed

Aww, you missed the best one huh? Lol, but I suppose Mr. Sakai's drawings can't really be considered fanart can they^^; No, when he draws Usagi, it is pure "art"!

Thanks for the info though^_^ And for putting these pics up in the first darn place. They're a lot of fun!

Stan's drawing was the single page story concerning the death of Gen because Usagi and Tome Ame spent too long at the San Diego Comic Con, therefore arriving too late to save him...

It was reprinted in place of the letter page in an issue of Usagi Yojimbo back last fall or winter, I forget which issue it was in.

Glad you enjoyed the scans...
