Usagi Yojimbo Returns With A New Series, Omnibus Collection

Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo, one of the most beloved indie comics in the U.S., will return in August with a new series from Dark Horse Comics and a series of omnibus editions collecting the more than 200 issues of previously-published material. In celebration of thirty years of the marvelous samurai rabbit saga, Usagi Yojimbo is set to return in an all-new six-issue miniseries, Usagi Yojimbo: Senso, followed by the debut of the Usagi Yojimbo Saga collection, a series of hard- and softcover omnibuses collecting earlier adventures. Twenty years in his future, Miyamoto Usagi fights as a general for Lord Noriyuki, against the treacherous Lord Hikiji. In the fury of the final battle, a metal rocket crashes to earth—and inside is an enemy that neither side could have ever imagined! Witness the final fates of your favorite Usagi characters, in this all-new samurai epic with a startling science fiction twist.

Usagi Yojimbo: Senso #1 is on sale in comic shops everywhere August 6. To celebrate the rabbit ronin's thirtieth anniversary, Dark Horse will release Miyamoto Usagi's epic trek along the warrior's path in a new series of deluxe compilations, The Usagi Yojimbo Saga. In the first volume, Usagi protects a village from a band of assassins, reluctantly engages in a duel for blood money, hunts a gangster who has stolen his swords, and more. Collecting Usagi Yojimbo Vol. 2 #1–#16 and Vol. 3 #1–#6, and featuring over six hundred pages of samurai action and adventure, The Usagi Yojimbo Saga Volume 1 will be available in both limited hardcover and softcover omnibus editions in comic shops on October 15.
