Iconic retro anime artist Kenichi Sonoda’s classic series is back and bigger than ever!
Dark Horse Manga invites readers back to the sleazy, crime-ridden world of Kenichi Sonoda’s Chicago in the 1990s with Gunsmith Cats Omnibus Volume 1. It’s a pulpy cult classic filled with sex, drugs, and a whole lot of car-chasing, gun-slinging girls! Dana Lewis and Toren Smith translated Gunsmith Cats Omnibus Volume 1, with lettering and retouching by Studio Cutie.
This series is a non-stop, action-packed, nostalgia-filled love letter to those buddy cop blockbuster movies of the 1980s and 90s with huge chase scenes and even bigger hair! For those who’ve never ridden shotgun with the ladies of the Gunsmith Cats gunshop, be prepared for the violence and action of Hellsing mixed with the blatant organized crime of games like Grand Theft Auto. Anything could happen in 1990’s Chicago, and it usually does!
In Gunsmith Cats:Rally Vincent runs Gunsmith Cats—a gun shop in Illinois, with her partner, demolitions expert and former call girl Minnie-May Hopkins. But Rally’s “real” job doesn’t pay the bills; her hobby does. Her hobby is bounty hunting: bringing the most wanted men and women in the Chicago area to justice—dressed in her sharp suit and tie and driving her Shelby Cobra GT 500!
But Rally and Minnie-May have their work cut out for them in Gunsmith Cats Omnibus Volume 1, with corrupt lawyers and cops, fetish-fueled hitmen, and crazed cocaine kingpins bringing the copters, the big rigs, and even the anti-tank guns onto the streets and the freeways of Chicagoland in a windshield whirlwind of double-crosses, car chases, and shootouts!
Don’t miss the chance to immerse yourself in the explosive world of Sonoda’s bounty-hunting femme fatales. Gunsmith Cats Omnibus Volume 1 is set to hit bookstores on February 4, 2025, and comic shops on February 5, 2025. This 5.75 x 8.25″ paperback omnibus, spanning 596 pages, is now available for pre-order. Secure your copy today through local comic shop, bookstore, TFAW, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble for $29.99.
