Kogaratsu

Set in medieval Japan, Kogaratsu is a German comic series published by Carlsen Comics from 1987 to 1997, spanning seven issues. The series is most closely associated with artist Michetz, whose work brings the samurai era to life, with scripts predominantly handled by Helmut Mennicken, Bosse, and Serge Bosmans. It stands as a notable European take on the ronin genre, blending a Western comic sensibility with Japanese historical themes.
