Message: [QUOTE="Isegrim, post: 351031, member: 569592"] It's close ties with TMNT certainly made me aware of it due to the crossovers. I've been a TMNT fan since it's inception from it's black and white origins and couldn't help notice his presence in the cartoon and comics. I only started reading Usagi Yojimbo when our local comic store was selling random issues for cheap years back. I've read a lot more issues after that and it strikes me as a showcase of medieval(?) japan as well as a comic due to the various aspects of the former that it portrays and woven as part of the story. It meshes well with my usual reading of manga and articles about Japanese society which clarifies what I find in the comic. There are even explanations in some issues tackling the various themes used. Being Catholic, I especially liked how he handles the tricky issue of Christianity in Edo period Japan. [/QUOTE]
