It's time once again for Old School Month, and not even a disastrous windstorm can keep us away forever! Let's kick things off with one of the first manga to find an audience in the US, all the way back in the 1980s.
LONE WOLF AND CUB (Kozure Okami), written by Kazuo Koike & art by Goseki Kojima. First published in 1970 and first published in North America in 1987.
PLOT:
Ogami Itto was once the executioner for the shogun until his family was betrayed and his wife was murdered. Instead of accepting death, he instead choses to fight back. With his son by his side, he becomes a wandering samurai, taking the jobs that no one else wants so that both he and his clients can get their bloody vengence.
