Exclusive Preview: Usagi Yojimbo #129

Because you can never have too much of a rabbit with swords.


Courtesy of Dark Horse, here is an exclusive first look at Usagi Yojimbo #129. It's written and drawn by Stan Sakai and is on sale June 30, 2010. 24 black & white pages with a $3.50 cover price.

Kato, the master swordsman from "A Town Called Hell!" returns!

Cheated out of the two hundred gold coins he was promised for staying out of a gang war, Kato has been hunting for Usagi for weeks, believing the "treacherous, long-eared ronin" to have stolen the money from him. However, a gang of cutthroats is after Kato, thinking he already has the fortune. All three meet high in the mountains at Blood Tree Pass.
