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.
Chasing Bean This is volume 6 in the Gunsmith Cat series.
Bean makes a bet with Rally. If Rally can stop Bean from making a drug delivery, Bean will quit running drugs. If Rally loses, she promises to quit bugging him.
Rally has a few major setbacks. As a result of the events in previous volumes, Rally has lost all of her licenses except for her drivers license. She can't be a bounty hunter, possess a gun, or run her gun shop for at least a month.
Anytime Bean is involved, there will always be racing, and the race is a fantastic part of the story. Plus you have the usual action you can expect from this series. Misty, Minnie May, and Ken are here too. There are some humorous moments. The best involves Rally hiding in the closet while searching Bean's home. There's also the insensitivity of some people in how they talk to Rally about her situation at the beginning - Kate being stupid and Faye asking for a favor.
This is for mature audiences. There is some minor nudity (a little of Bean too) and suggestive moments. There are some close-ups of wounds being treated - as in stitches. The art is black and white so it may not be too bad for some people, and we're only talking about a couple of panels.
