Book Description
Stan Sakai's original series starring the rabbit _ronin_ is available online for the first time as part of Dark Horse's complete digital presentation of _Usagi Yojimbo_! In one of his most celebrated tales, A Kite Story,� Sakai instills a village kite festival with danger and drama in a _Rashomon_-like approach to the day's proceedings, told from the points of view of a kite maker, a gambler, and a (rabbit) _ronin_. Alongside tense clashes between Usagi and a crooked gambling ring, Sakai creates a lesson in traditional Japanese kite making, and both plots intersect in the unpredictable climax! It's the quality of Stan's scripting and artwork that really impresses me the most. In his writing, with an economy of dialogue, he manages to capture subtle and dramatic emotions as well to convey the sense of honor and tradition embodied in the centuries-old code of the Samurai.� Stan Lee

For years, as Miyamoto Usagi has wandered the countryside, an unseen, malevolent entity has been tracing his steps. Thought dead since the events of Grasscutter, the demon Jei-the Black Soul-has been inhabiting the body of the swordswoman Inazuma, intent on destroying the evil he claims to see in Usagi! Meanwhile, Boss Bakuchi, shamed by his inability to avenge his son's death, doubles the bounty on the killer-Inazuma. The money brings out scores of bounty hunters, unaware that they are merely a flock of sparrows intent on bringing down an eagle. The hunt for Inazuma also draws Usagi, hunters Gen and Stray Dog, and a mysterious stranger named Isamu, each with his own motive. As the threat of the Black Soul reemerges, this epic storyline reveals at last the true origin of Jei! * Collecting "Sparrows," the dramatic return of the demon Jei, and "The Darkness and the Soul," Jei's long-awaited origin, plus the Usagi short from Free Comic Book Day 2009. * Introduction by Charles Solomon of the Los Angeles Times.
