That was made into a weekly TV show for a while. Pretty good stuff. The star of the show trained in Suio Ryu for some time. I am not sure how much of it transmitted into the actually show but he was pretty skilled.

Another good one to watch is Zatoichi (Blind Swordsman). Soe classic stuff.

i believe i have a comic book entitled lone wolf and cub. do you know if it is based on the same thing?

the comic was pretty graphic.
