Description

Nearly 36 years of the epic Usagi Yojimbo this year. That�s 36 years of stellar storytelling � and still going strong. A remarkable achievement.

Samurai �funny animals� as if directed by Akira Kurosawa. Japanese arts, folklore and fantasy. Told in clear, well-crafted, and often philosophical episodes.

Genius. Just genius.

Stan is an accomplished talent in all facets of comic book creation: Writing. Penciling. Inking. Painting.

And did I mention his lettering? In addition to lettering his own series, Stan letters Sergio Aragones� Groo, and for 25 years, he lettered the Spider-Man Sunday comic strip. In fact, he won an Eisner for his lettering this year.

He's also one of the nicest and kindest creators in the business.

This detailed action cover is from the opening chapter of a cool story arc entitled �Town Call Hell."

Bringing Stan over to IDW Publishing was one of my penultimate accomplishments there. It was also one my happiest.

(IDW�s first collection of Stan's earlier material one the archival Eisner this year as well.)
