Here's the thing: Gennosuke has been a better person than Usagi for this entire time.

I wish "Dragon Bellow" concentrated more on this central piece of character development. Much of the rest of it is pretty scattershot, with the story's lack of focus being by far its greatest flaw.

As a much bigger story, "Dragon Bellow" is also much longer than any of the previous Usagi Yojimbo titles, clocking in at a full 150 pages. Basically a graphic novel unto itself.

Eclectic mix this time.

So, that's Usagi and Spot.

I actually wouldn't mind a spin-off series about Matsutaro's own dishonest, unambitious, cringefail adventures

He knows he should learn. But he won't.

This guy can't not push his luck, can he?

This wasn't a bad story, but it could have been a lot better than it is.

Can Usagi jump unusually high or change directions mid-step because of his rabbit legs? Can Tamoe see in the dark? Will we ever see Lord Hebi poison someone with his bite?

I like this pig.

Two Samurabbit shorts today.

Heh, I probably should have seen this coming from the beginning when Genno made a point of telling the innkeeper to put everything on credit.

It turns out that this series isn't quite as episodic as I thought.

In any case, I can confidently say I’m sold on Usagi Yojimbo at this point.

Right off the bat, I'm loving how this is drawn.
