Usagi Yojimbo Takes Over Heritage Auctions Today
Usagi Yojimbo will become one of the hottest characters in comics again, thanks to a new Netflix animated series coming later this year. That naturally means, of course, that now is the time to start grabbing his comics, as you do not want to wait for the trailer to debut, for then it will be too late. Taking bids at Heritage Auctions today are some CGC copies of issues #2, 3, 4, 6, and Summer Special #1, all above a 9.4. These are some nice copies of these books and the best part? As of this writing, none of them are above $50. This is something to keep an eye on. Check out the books below.
