The acclaimed genre-defining samurai epic by Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima is presented in a new deluxe oversized hardcover edition and is now oriented in right-to-left reading format as originally published in Japan!
Ronin samurai Ogami Itto and his young son Daigoro travel a dark road, beset by enemies sworn to destroy them. Ogami’s relentless quest for retribution takes him face to face with the sons of the war-bell warden, legions of organized crime bosses, a mysterious tattooed woman, a bounty-hunting gang who seek to enact their own vengeance, and a master gunsmith. And the Yagyu clan, fearful of the growing legend surrounding Lone Wolf, has decided to protect itself by sending its own assassin after him, and later pit the greatest swordsman of a rival clan against him.
The Deluxe Edition features:
New cover with grain texture, burnishing, and foil stamping
Oversized 7" x 10" format

Praise for Lone Wolf and Cub:
"A classic in every sense of the word. Strongly recommended for fans of historical epics and essential for all graphic novel collections."—Library Journal
"The storytelling is patient and kind. Pages of beautiful artwork and zero dialogue. People walking through the landscape, looking into the sun. It makes the world feel that much more real and the tension that much more profound."—Fanbase Press
