As always, all the Usagi Yojimbo stories are great and by reading the earlier ones, such as this one, you can see how Stan Sakai's craft improved over each the previous ones.

This is the first multi issue story arc, and the first to involve all the previously introduced characters. It follows a familiar structure (admitted by Stan Sakai himself on the notes), but it does so in a way that it is incredibly difficult to notice.

The fact that it is colourised only adds to the piece, without substracting anything.
