The most faithful and complete collection of the Eisner-Award winning tale is now available from IDW Limited!
IDW Publishing (OTC: IDWM) is proud to announce that Grasscutter, the critically acclaimed storyline considered to be the seminal tale in Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo comic book series, is now available in the prestigious Artist Select Edition format, sold exclusively online by IDW Limited.
For the first time ever, the beloved Grasscutter storyline is collected in its entirety in a single volume, comprising both the original Eisner Award-winning storyline from Usagi Yojimbo #13-22 and its sequel, Grasscutter II, published in issues #39-45.
The Artist Select Edition treatment delivers each page of Grasscutter’s powerful narrative to the reader in its most faithful presentation ever: scanned from Sakai’s original art, courtesy of the artist’s personal archives, in the same manner as the multi-Eisner award-winning Artist’s Edition series from IDW.
“Saying I am pleased with this book would be an understatement,” said Stan Sakai, “The presentation of my work, the attention to detail and the design, make this the best collection ever done of my stories. I could not be happier with it.”
Additionally, a truly extraordinary Usagi Yojimbo: Grasscutter Artist Select Deluxe Edition is available from IDW Limited, numbered to only 50 copies, which includes a hardcover portfolio case with a unique, original drawing by Stan Sakai inside. Both the book and portfolio are presented in a custom clamshell case that completely encloses the book and portfolio. The Deluxe Edition retails for $350.00.
As an added bonus to fans, IDW Limited is proud to offer a free autographed copy of a Usagi Yojimbocomic to those customers who purchase a Regular or Deluxe Edition of the Grasscutter Artist Select within its first 48 hours of online availability.
