Zack Rosenberg and Jared Cullum have obtained Stan Sakai’s approval to continue the story of Usagi Yojimbo and his descendant, Kaitō Usagi.
Set in 1984, Kaitō Usagi and his crew have been recruited to steal an infamous evil spear, one that is connected to an ancient evil, an enemy of Usagi Yojimbo himself, but can the evil spear truly bring back evil people to the present?
The setup is ready, and they are about to execute their heist when everything goes awry. As they chase each other across Osaka, this is barely the first part of a sinister tale.
Now, spoiler alert:
The evil foe is Jei, a demon warrior from Hell. He believed that he was rooting out evil by killing anyone in his path, with, you guessed it, a spear. The spear that Kaito must steal. A dangerous item, it is known for its ability to tear one’s very soul from their body.
