GunSmith Cats

... Show More
Rally Vincent works by day in her Chicago gun store, GunSmith Cats. But at the drop of the hat, she hangs up the "Gone Fishing" sign, straps on her guns and takes to the road in her muscle car to fulfill her other role—as one of Chicago's toughest, most respected bounty hunters. Her expert sharpshooting and driving skills are augmented by her partner Minnie-May's abilities with explosives of all kinds. And she'll need every bit of her skills, and those of her friends, because only she can bring in the highest bounties and the most determined, powerful criminals from Chicago's mob, characters who hold a grudge for life and have the wits and the firepower to outwit whatever the law throws at them.

Featuring some of the most authentically detailed firearms and automobiles ever drawn, author and artist Kenichi Sonoda has created a complex and supremely exciting story in the vein of Hollywood action films, but with all the detail and dynamism of manga in this classic series. GunSmith Cats received a 4 volume aizouban reprint from July 22, 2005 and October 21, 2005.

The series was published in English by Dark Horse; initially in individual monthly chapter issues from May 1, 1995 to August 15, 2001, in 9 volumes from October 1, 1996 to February 13, 2002, and in 4 omnibus volumes following the aizouban reprint from March 14, 2007 to December 19, 2007. The series also began serialization in the British magazine Manga Mafia starting September 1996. The Dark Horse release retained the original Japanese right to left reading format, and removed certain scenes with sexual content with the approval of Kenichi Sonoda.
