Lone Wolf and Parenting
Ogami Itto is just a single dad trying to make his way through the world on a quest for vengeance that requires the rejection of human morals. It isn't easy with a young child in tow! This Tumblr highlights the trials and foibles of parenting on the assassin's road.

I've started re-reading Lone Wolf and Cub, a samurai comic from the '70s. (Careful about reading the Wikipedia article on it. There's a series-ending-spoiler in it.) Now that I'm a parent, the parts pertaining to having a child are even more amusing, so I've decided to catalogue them as I read.

Fun fact: the Dark Horse prints are the perfect size for little hands to pick up and haul around, which amused me greatly, to see my own little cub re-arranging these books.

Yes! My guy likes grabbing at the pages, like it was one of his little cloth books.

I think I've used the ball/sword choice metaphorically a million times.
