Publisher Marketing: "Sixteenth-century Japan is never so entertaining as in Stan Sakai's tales of Miyamoto Usagi."--NPR "Sakai is a total pro and a consummate craftsman."--Rolling Stone "Humbly presented, but a paragon of its art."--Booklist "Sakai delivers on the action, humor, and layers it all with his signature mix of Japanese mythology and anthropomorphic animals."--ComicsVerse "I think Usagi Yojimbo is one of the most original, innovative, well-executed comic books anywhere to be found. Stan's style of artwork, his crisp incisive writing, and his thoroughly professional pacing, all done in a relaxed and absorbed manner, have provided comics with something so rarely seen in this field--a new literary and artistic approach to illustrated storytelling."--Stan Lee Biographical Note : Stan Sakai was born in Kyoto, Japan, grew up in Hawaii, and now lives in California with his wife, Julie.
