Usagi Yojimbo: Ice and Snow Brings a New Adventure Featuring Usagi & Yukichi To Dark Horse

Dark Horse Comics has announced a new miniseries titled Usagi Yojimbo: Ice and Snow which sees Usagi and his cousin Yukichi head into a new adventure. As Dark Horse teams up with Dogu Publishing and creator Stan Sakai once again, we see the rabbit ronin take on a returning fan-favorite villain, Jei. 

Sakai will be penning the series as well as the art and letters. HiFi Colour Design will provide colors. Sakai will provide the art for the main cover with variant covers by artists Skottie Young and Paolo Rivera. 

Dark Horse’s description of Ice and Snow reads: 

Usagi and Yukichi are still in the snowy mountaintops of Northern Japan, following Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo story arc, “The Green Dragon.” They are led to the hut of a strange hermit who allows them to spend the night at her home to shelter from the snowstorm. Meanwhile, the maniacal Jei and his familiar, Keiko, are on Usagi’s trail when they stumble upon a bandit lair and subdue a band of cutthroats and thieves.

Usagi Yojimbo: Ice and Snow #1 will be available at your favorite local comic shop and digitally on September 27, 2023.
