Description
Usagi Yojimbo, Rōnin Rabbit of the Feudal Lord Mifune's house, and trusted Samurai protector for his clan.
He is a warrior beyond his years, and true master of Bushido and the art of the honorable blade, many a clan, ninja, and war lord alike have risen against him only to fall.
His path has taken him from province to province of Edo Japan, working as a samurai for hire, in war time, and out of the goodness of his heart, repaying the debt he owes for so many squandered years of his youth before finding the path.
Now, up against a savage clan of the Neko Ninjas, Usagi faces a foe even more dire an wretched who's come to join the scene aiding him in slaughtering the Ninja just so the two of them could have the last dance....a warrior who's said to fight like a demon...because it's rumored that he is one....

Yes, this is the same image, just with a hat.
Usagi Yojimbo is a comic book series created by Stan Sakai, an exceptional artist and comic writer who it has been my pleasure to meet in person. I've loved his work for quite some time, and decided to attempt drawing some of his creations.
Think Samurai Jack, before there was Samurai Jack, except he's an anthropomorphic rabbit, and take away the future and time traveling magic narrative and gimmick making it raw and realistic, and violent despite the animal characters involved...like a furry version of Last Samurai...and that is essentially Usagi Yojimbo.
He's crossed over with the Ninja Turtles before a number of times, as well as have his own independent success via his own journey's across feudal Japan, fighting for justice and honor with, and sometimes against friends.
It's definitely worth a look if you haven't heard of the character before.
