|
MILWAUKIE, OR, JULY 17—Next week will see the release of the official
celebration of thirty years of Stan Sakai’s marvelous samurai rabbit
saga, Usagi Yojimbo, in the oversized hardcover benefit book The Sakai
Project: Artists Celebrate Thirty Years of Usagi Yojimbo!
To celebrate, Dark Horse announces the complete list of all of the artists who contributed to this very special tribute. These artists have truly brought their own styles to the subject, making this book a one-of-a-kind treasure.
“It has been an absolute pleasure publishing Stan’s work over the
years, and recently collaborating with him directly on 47 Ronin,” said
Dark Horse’s president and founder, Mike Richardson. “With the thirtieth
anniversary of his most beloved creation, Usagi, and in a time of need
for Stan and his family, we are honored to publish this tribute to Stan
and his work. We are donating all of the proceeds to Stan and his wife,
Sharon. We hope you will join us in honoring one of the comics
industry’s shining lights.”
The Sakai Project: Artists Celebrate Thirty Years of Usagi Yojimbo will
be released opening night of next week’s Comic-Con International, and
in comic shops everywhere!
For a complete list of the participating artists contained in this deluxe hardcover, check out the Dark Horse NewsFeed, and then mark your calendar for its release on July 23!
The Sakai Project is produced in association with the Comic Art
Professional Society (CAPS). All proceeds from this book will go to Stan
and Sharon Sakai.
