<h3 style="text-align: center">The Way of the Househusband Wins An Eisner Award</h3>
<p>This year&#8217;s Eisner Comic Book Awards winners were announced earlier this week, highlighting some of the best comic book and manga series this year. Among the honored titles was Kousuke Oono&#8217;s <em>The Way of the Househusband</em>, which won Best Humor Publication award.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s important to note that <em>The Way of the Househusband</em> is the first manga in 22 years to receive the award after Masahi Tanaka&#8217;s<em> Gon Swimmin&#8217;</em> received the award in 1998. To celebrate this achievement, Manga creator Kousuke Oono drew the main character as thanks for winning the award.</p>
<p>Those unfamiliar with The Way of the Househusband can find a synopsis below from <a href="https://bagogames.com/rwby-the-official-manga-vol-1-out-now/">VIZ Media</a>, who publishes the manga in English.</p>
<blockquote><p>“The Immortal Dragon, once the fiercest member of the yakuza, is now a married man devoted to supporting his loving wife—as a househusband! But when the gangster-turned-homemaker needs to make some quick cash to buy her a present, he turns to the only skills he knows—and gets his first part-time job! The cozy yakuza comedy continues!”</p></blockquote>
