While spring showers usually bring May flowers, they will bring something far more exciting this year: the triumphant return of Stan Sakai and his beloved rabbit ronin in Usagi Yojimbo #145!

For the first time since February 2012, Usagi is back in his ongoing series, and there’s no stopping his adventures. Kicking off with a new story in Usagi Yojimbo #145, the series continues as Usagi finds himself caught up in a fight between his thief friend Kitsune and a ninja intent on getting the mysterious scroll Kitsune’s stolen, at any cost!

One of NPR’s best books of 2014, the long-running series by Stan Sakai has garnered a vast amount of critical acclaim, and the return of the Usagi Yojimbo ongoing series heralds the fantastic next chapter in Sakai’s incredible saga.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
