Samurai Executioner

    (Dark Horse, 2004-2005)
™ and © 1995, 2004 Kazuo Koike & Goseki Kojima
Black and white series; right to left reading format.

If you’re a fan of Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima’s award–wining manga series Lone Wolf and Cub, you already know who Kubikiri Asa is: he’s Decapitator Asaemon, the equal of Itto Ogami—the Lone Wolf, wielder of the sword Onibocho, and tester of weapons for the shogun. This ten–volume series takes place well before the events in Lone Wolf and Cub and chronicles the life of the Decapitator as he comes to terms with the evil that resides inside him and fights with the fluid grace and fast–paced fury of the samurai.
