It's something of a crossover, as it features Usagi Yojimbo and a huge cast of characters (including the woman he loves and their teenaged son) facing a different kind of war - namely, a War of the Worlds!
Yep, it appears they're facing a Martian invasion - so how can swords and horses stand up to giant mechanical tripods and advanced weaponry?
It seems hopeless, but Usagi manages to bring the fight to the Martians - but not without cost.
As always, writer and artist Stan Sakai delivers the goods, creating an amazing world of anthropomorphic characters and making them live and breath with genuine emotions - love, hate, determination and courage in the face of an impossible foe.
It's a tremendous series - you should be reading this comic!
