    Both new and old fans should get a kick out of the issue which is notable for allowing Stan Sakai to draw a futuristic version of the character in unusual settings (and the Agnes Garbowska variant cover is pretty damn cool as well). Read Full Review

    This series mixes science fiction with samurai mythology perfectly, where Stan Sakai continues to expand his universe of characters and nourish himself with other genres.

    Art
    It is a mixture of naive art, with caricatures but with the unique imprint of Stan Sakai, which never disappoints and shows an impressive evolution. The colors are beautiful and highlight all of Stan's unique strokes, it is a visual delight.

    Summary
    Usagi is responsible for keeping Lord Matabe's fallen kingdom standing.
