himself in great danger — but it’s all in a day’s work when you

Usagi Yojimbo Volume 9: Daisho 2nd Edition TPB

A samurai’s sword is more than his weapon-it is his soul. As such,
he must prove himself worthy of possessing a daisho, a matched pair of swords.

In his years as a warrior, fighting injustice and honing his
spiritual and martial skills, Miyamoto Usagi has more than earned
his swords. After braving many a battle and surviving tremendous
bloodshed, Usagi continues his warrior pilgrimage. This volume
finds him the reluctant participant in a duel for blood money, and,
later, enraged at the theft of his swords, Usagi pledges a new
oath-to track the leader of a roving band of brigands and retrieve
his daisho.

* Usagi Yojimbo: Daisho 2nd edition is newly rescanned from Stan Sakai’s original art and
features new story notes! Includes an introduction by James
Robinson.
