The Lone Wolf's arch-enemy, Yagyu Retsudo, begins to reach the end of his rope, as he sends his only daughter and last child after the blood-storm that is Itto Ogami! Meanwhile, Ogami and Daigoro happen upon another clue about the mysterious Yagyu Letter in a final showdown with the Kurokuwa ninja clan. A desperate Retsudo puts a bounty on Ogami's head, and two of Japan's most deadly bounty hunters hunt for the Lone Wolf and his Cub, while a poor woodcutter must decide between the bounty and his life by sheltering Ogami and Daigoro! All this and much more awaits in one of comics' most legendary series.

In the late 1980s, artist-entrepreneur Tony Wong's company Jademan released English language reprints of such Hong Kong fare as , and . After some initial popularity, the public's interest in Chinese comics waned, and Jademan ceased publication in the United States. However, Hong Kong (Chinese comics originally produced in China) experienced a resurgence of sorts when ComicsOne began releasing popular HK comics like , and to American readers. Perhaps inspired by this, DC Comics hired Tony Wong to try his hand at drawing one of the company's flagship characters: Batman. From a storytelling standpoint, Doug Moench's writing is a little bit on the thin side. Artistically speaking, however, the union between Tony Wong's Hong Kong style and the Dark Knight Detective is a proverbial match made in heaven. The Hong Kong method of mixing in traditional penciled art with full-color paintings results in a series of memorable images--the artwork is that good. If you are a fan of manhua or a fan of Batman this TPB's for you. Broomhandle Mauser's 200th scan for DCP.
