Description

Imagine this: the Quinjet takes Hulk though another wormhole and lands in the Edo period of Japanese history and is trained to be a Samurai by Usagi Yojimbo instead of becoming a gladiator for the Grandmaster on Sakaar. Now that would make for a great What If episode!

Stan Sakai is well known for his masterpiece creation, Usagi Yojimbo. I’ve yet to add a Usagi to my collection but I was able to do the next best thing by adding this great Hulk, and I love his take on the Gamma powered Samurai! I might have to add a Usagi/Hulk team up piece at some point, but I am more than satisfied with this great piece for the time being.

Samurai Hulk is an idea whose time has come. It warrants an old school oversized "What If?" at the very least.

Old school oversized format would be amazing! Great idea. Thanks!

You say, "Yes", I say, "Hulk"
You say, "Stop" and I say, "Go, Hulk, go"
Oh no
You say, "Sakai" and I "Yojimbo.
Edo. Edo."
I don't know why you say, "Samurai", I say, "The Hulk,
The Hulk, The Hulk."
I don't know when you asked, "Sakai, Edo The Hulk."

You can definitely claim 1 of 1 and if we EVER see a Samurai Hulk (why the heck haven't we yet?!) this will be the official birth commission.

Ha ha, nice! Jade Giant Yojimbo :) Love the expression - can definitely tell it's the Hulk. And how often do you get to see Sakai's rendition?! Congrats, man!

Hulk Slash! What a cool concept from Sakai. That's a great mash-up concept, and you killed two birds with one stone. Good call all around. Congrats!

Love this! I wish I would have thought of it first.

I guess "Hulk smash" would need to be replaced with "Hulk slash". Sakai does his interpretation magic once again. Congrats.
