Product Description: Uber-babe bounty hunter Rally Vincent is on the trail of counterfeiters, but vengeance-minded killers are on the trail of Rally. And they've got her pal Misty under wraps. Rally has to team up with a pal who happens to work for one of Rally's bounty targets! Round and round Rally goes, but where she stops...you'd better believe she's heavily armed! Duck and cover! Gunsmith Cats is gun-blazing, tire-screeching, eye-popping manga as only Kenichi Sonoda can deliver. Includes two special Gunsmith Cats short stories.
A New Villian for GSC This is volume 4 of the series.
Misty has just gotten out of jail and is already in trouble. (We briefly saw Misty in volume 2: Misfire.) It turns out The Mob is VERY interested in some videotapes Misty has acquired from a friend who was in jail with her. We also learn more about Ken and Minnie May's past. Near the end of this volume, a new drug is being sold on the street. This is the first time kerasine shows up in the manga. This volume does end with a cliffhanger and is concluded in volume 5: Bad Trip.
Goldie is a highly skilled assassin who works for the don. She is ruthless and merciless. ...extremely merciless. She feels that the weak should die and anyone who makes a mistake deserves the consequences - even death. "Incompetents are better off dead... Don't you think?" (No page numbers - This quote is near the beginning of the second chapter,"Decoy.")
Goldie probably ends up being the one villian to show up more often than any of the others, and she is the best villian in the series. Much better than Radinov in the OVA (Bulletproof) but similiar to her too.
The action becomes more believeable starting in this volume. You still see great stunts, but it's easier to believe someone actually doing these things.
The story seems a little more developed this time. There's more time allowed for things and characters to be explained.
This is for mature audiences.
Kenichi Sonoda Rules! Go Mini-May! You just can't beat Kenichi Sonoda for some serious action! One of the greatest Manga artists and Character Designers of all time, Gunsmith Cats is his masterpiece, a work of pure inspiration and a love of detail. This is the first part of the story, so everyone who so much as glances this way should be sure to have a copy if they like action, suspense, or just really cool cars (I love that Shelby Cobra)
This book willl leave you pumped for more! You need it! Car chases and bullets fly through the pages of this book! Its like a John Woo movie on paper! Oh, car chases CAN be done in comic! AND BEWARE: you will buy the next installment!
