Lone Wolf and Cub

[Richard S.]

i just finished watching the last episode of this series (theres 6 movies in all) and they are GREAT! made from 1972-1974 they are a samurai movie lovers dream.... i simply cannot reccomend them highly enough. if any of you Iai or Kendo practitioners get a chance, check em out..........respects.

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.

 

[Richard S.]

oh yes, its the same thing alright. ive never seen the comic, but i understand the historical aspects (Edo period) are well researched............respects.
