Usagi Yojimbo - Stan Sakai says more "special edition" collections to come

[Rat A Tat]

According to Mr. Sakai, Dark Horse has the go-ahead to print more omnibus-like collections.

Editor Diana told me in Montreal that she got the go-ahead for DH to publish UY collected editions in the same format as the Fantagraphics Special Edition. It is still undecided as to how many of the trades will be collected in each edition, and what extras, if any, we will be including.

Don't expect the first book to be out for at least a year. It took more than 2 years to put that Fantagraphic edition together.

The wait will be painful, but they could print the entire Usagi series in these collections and I'd gobble them all up.

I never did get the first one, but it's good to know that sales are well enough to continue putting that kind of material out.
I love Usagi Yojimbo, I die waiting for it monthly.

I got the first set. Its beautiful...I just haven't gotten around to reading through it (Same with my TMNT collected volume 1). Both are fairly unwieldy in terms of being easily held to casually read them.

I'll buy the next set, for sure.

I still need to get the first set, and I will. And any others

This is awesome news.

That's great news. Man I would be stoked if we could get a Usagi/IDW Turtles crossover mini in 2012.
