Description
The swords of Ōgami Ittō and Retsudō Yagyū stand waiting for the mortal enemies' final confrontation, but Yagyū is imprisoned in Edo Castle, with conniving poisoner Abeno as his warden. Retsudō has two deadly options--take Abeno's prepared meals and be slowly poisoned or refuse and die of hunger and thirst!
Created by Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima, Lone Wolf and Cub has sold over a million copies of its first Dark Horse English-language editions, and this acclaimed masterpiece of graphic fiction is now available in larger format, value-priced editions.
"The stories in this collection are so well written it is easy to want to read them again and again. But what truly makes it is the art. Beautiful and flowing, many frames are works of art." -geeksofdoom.com
