Usagi Yojimbo Vol. 1 #24

Book excerpt: Stan Sakai's original series starring the rabbit _ronin_ is available online for the first time as part of Dark Horse's complete digital presentation of _Usagi Yojimbo_! Framed as a traitor to his clan and ousted in disgrace, bodyguard Yagi was forced to take up assassination for hire, walking the road to Hell with his son Gorogoro. Sakai homages the classic manga _Lone Wolf and Cub_ when Yagi is hired to slay the rabbit _ronin_, in Lone Goat and Kid�! It's the quality of Stan's scripting and artwork that really impresses me the most. In his writing, with an economy of dialogue, he manages to capture subtle and dramatic emotions as well to convey the sense of honor and tradition embodied in the centuries-old code of the Samurai.� Stan Lee
