Comic books in 'Martial Arts'

1 for $1: Usagi Yojimbo Stan Sakai (W/A) On sale Aug 18 b&w, 28 pages $1.00 The close of sixteenth-century Japan is regarded as the age of civil wars, as feudal lords fought amongst themselves for land and power. When one leader finally rose above the others and was proclaimed shogun, a peace came upon Japan and the samurai warriors found themselves suddenly unemployed. Many of these ronin turned to banditry to survive; others found work with minor lords. And a small number traveled the musha shugyo-the warrior pilgrimage-to hone their spiritual and martial skills. But whether they took the honest road or the crooked path, the ronin all found one common link-they were generally less than welcome. Such is the tale of Usagi Yojimbo. Cover price $1.00.
