178. Stan Sakai on new adventures for Usagi Yojimbo

I had the honor of interviewing the legendary Stan Sakai last year, and Stan generously agreed to another conversation on Culture Chat!  Stan is the creator of Usagi Yojimbo, one of my favorite comic book characters.  If you love samurai stories, feudal japan, or ninjas – this comic is for you. Stan recently won 2 new Eisner awards and was inducted into the Hall of Fame at this year’s San Diego Comic Con.  Team Usagi is also excited to announce a new Netflix series coming soon to a tv near you. It was great to catch up with Stan and see how he has been doing during the pandemic and discuss his latest projects. As always, please help support this podcast by SHARING and RATING it.  If you would like to support with a donation, you can become a patron of the show by visiting my website or Patreon.com, so I can keep sharing these awesome interviews with you.
