Usagi Yojimbo Saga Graphic Novel Volume 8 (Second Edition) collects issues #139–#158 of Usagi Yojimbo Volume 3, "The Artist" and "Buntori" from Usagi Yojimbo Color Special #5, and the bonus story "Sukanku" and all feature story and art by Stan Sakai.

The eighth volume in Stan Sakai's prestige Usagi Saga collection includes three major storylines: ''Two Hundred Jizo,'' in which Usagi and Inspector Ishida team up to solve a double murder; ''Thieves and Spies,'' where Usagi joins forces with a thief and a samurai to thwart a black-market Ginseng trade; and ''The Hell Screen,'' a thrilling tale that finds Usagi working alongside his natural enemy—a kappa—to cast out a violent renegade of the same species.
