The eighth volume in Stan Sakai s prestige Usagi Saga collection includes three major storylines: Two Hundred Jizo, in which Usagi and Inspector Ishida team up to solve a double murder; Thieves and Spies, where Usagi joins forces with a thief and a samurai to thwart a black-market Ginseng trade; and The Hell Screen, a thrilling tale that finds Usagi working alongside his natural enemy - a kappa - to cast out a violent renegade of the same species. Stan Sakai s evocative artwork and gripping tales continue to enthrall readers of all ages. Collects issues 139-158 of Usagi Yojimbo Volume 3, The Artist and Buntori from Usagi Yojimbo Color Special #5, and the bonus story Sukanku .

Stan Sakai was born in Kyoto, Japan, grew up in Hawaii, and now lives in California with his children, Hannah and Matthew. He received a fine arts degree from the University of Hawaii and did further studies at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. His creation, Usagi Yojimbo, is the story of a samurai rabbit living in a feudal Japan populated by anthropomorphic animals. It first appeared in Albedo Comics in 1984. Since then, Usagi has appeared on television as a guest of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; and as toys, on clothing, in comic books, and in a series of trade paperback collections. In 1991, Stan created Space Usagi, the adventures of a descendant of the original Usagi, dealing with the samurai in a futuristic setting. Stan is also an award-winning letterer for his work on Sergio Aragonés s Groo: The Wanderer, the Spider-Man Sunday newspaper strips, as well as for Usagi Yojimbo. He is the recipient of a Parents Choice Award, an Inkpot Award, multiple Eisner Awards, two Spanish Haxturs, an American Library Association Award, and a National Cartoonists Society Division Award. Usagi Yojimbo Book 12: Grasscutter was used as a textbook in Japanese history classes at the University of Portland.
