Lone Wolf and Cub Vol. 1: The Assassin's Road (Lone Wolf and Cub (Dark Horse))

by Kazuo Koike

I’m not sure if this is a question exactly but here goes: This was a great story and the art is beautiful. I sometimes have a hard time with female characters and the way they are portrayed in graphic novels and comics and there was no exception here; the women characters seemed to be either whores, evil badguys or helpless women being brutalized…there just was no strong female characters which always leaves me a little sad. I’m unsure of when these were written initially and perhaps it is an old fashioned cultural aspect they are trying to convey in the story; I know that women have been treated as such throughout the world, throughout history and even today…I’m really not sure if that is what they are trying to show here. At times I found it hard to get through certain sections- it was frustrating for me to see. Still worth reading and I do intend to read more of them.

Sushi

I love sushi but haven’t had any in a little while…going to Umi in Boston tonight. They have really good spicy tuna!
