Description

Here are the original design and concept sketches done by Steven Sanders for the new Silver Samurai. The inked piece was also published in Wolverine #300 as a preview image at the end of the issue. This issue marked the first appearance of the new Silver Samurai and kicked off Aaron's Japan story-arc.

SPOILER: Silver Samurai's son, Shin, had his first appearance as the new Silver Samurai (aka Silver Samurai Jr.) briefly in Wolverine #300. You can really see him take action battling Wolverine, Sabertooth and ninjas in Wolverine #301. He's a fun young character who's even dating Wolvie's daughter, Amiko! I'm excited to see where Marvel takes him in the latest Japan story-arc.

These design/concept drawings were published in a two page spread in Wolverine # 300, January 2012 and in the 'Back in Japan' TPB in December 2012.

Still haven't read Wolverine 300. Looks like Sabretooth is back from dead and there is new Silver Samurai? What happened to Kenuichiro? Anyway, nice catch on the sketch!
