Kojiroby *philbourassa

Cartoons & Comics / Traditional Media / Cartoons / Drawings

This brilliant, 17th century sword master, is probably best known for gettin' his wig split (literally) by Miyamoto Musashi in the year 1612. He's so famous for the way he died that the location of his fatal duel is actually named after him: Ganryujima.
I have never been there, but I hear its lovely.

i have to say, I loved your artwork in crisis on two earths, and in young justice, but now knowing your also into the Sengoku Period....its just....wow.
i know you proably get asked to do stuff all the time, but i was wondering if Terry from Batman Beyond was ever going to make an appearance in young justice? or if you were going to make a Date Masamune to go along with Kojiro?

nice stuff, possible to turn the comic into an actual series?

Great pic! Kojiro was at the time known to be the top, but he let Musashi get under his skin and his arrogance/anger got him killed. Sorry to ramble on but I do really like your version of him.

Man I love japenese samurai artwork the culture is rich with greatness from the trickester monkey to how the japenese sword is folded for purity.

Strange that his most famous achievement as a sword master is losing to the up-and-coming Musashi. I can't really remember what else he was famous for..and if that's all there is to it, the poor bastard must be crying in the next world.
