From the pen of Kazuo Koike, of Lone Wolf and Cub fame, comes Lady Snowblood. A story of pure vengeance, Lady Snowblood tells the tale of a daughter born with a singular purpose: to avenge the death of her family at the hands of a gang of thugs, a purpose woven into her soul from the time of her gestation. Beautifully drafted and full of bloody, sexy action, Lady Snowblood lives up to its title and reputation. • From Kazuo Koike, writer of Lone Wolf and Cub, Crying Freeman, and Samurai Executioner. • For mature readers.
Lady Snowblood was born to a single purpose: revenge. Revenge for her father's murder by greedy criminals, revenge for the tortured life of her mother, who birthed her in prison and set her on the demon's path—a path sometimes twisted, often sensual, and always deadly. By means of a world's worth of skills, Lady Snowblood will follow her path of vengeance, but what will she find at path's end? Written by the legendary Kazuo Koike, creator of Lone Wolf and Cub, and masterfully illustrated by Kazuo Kamimura, Lady Snowblood is a violent, erotic masterpiece and the inspiration for Quentin Tarantno's Kill Bill.
