Usagi Yojimbo: Ice and Snow Vol. 40
The adventures continue for the rabbit ronin Usagi and his cousin Yukichi!
Finally making it out of the frozen mountains, Usagi and Yukichi come across a merchant being attacked by four brigands.
They rescue the supposed merchant only to discover much later that he is really a criminal with a huge bounty on his head! Of course, wherever there is a huge reward you will find bounty hunters Gen and Stray Dog…and other unscrupulous trackers!
