Gun Honey

Product Information

This uncertainty, and the twists and turns of the plot, keep the story readable throughout and the atmospheric drawings - using both a clear realist style a degree of grainy murk - contribute to that, especially when capturing the seedier locations and events.

It seems the world she's moving in now isn't so far from where she grew up, and she has motives which may mean that consequences and ethics take second place. Expect violence, trench coats, cleavage, murder, boobs, prison breaks, massacres, bondage, gratuitous violence, gratuitous nudity, explosions, vigilante justice, etc. But when a gun smuggled into a high-security prison leads to the death of dozens and the escape of a brutal criminal, Joanna Tan is suddenly forced by the U. There is a lot of cheesecake art, and nudity, so combined with the violence it's a hard R of a story.With Gun Honey we’re given the opening salvo of Joanna Tan’s adventures, a taste of her exhilarating life, a glimpse into the misfortune that shaped her into the hard living, take no prisoners absolute bad ass that she is and we see that she is a woman not to be trifled with. With weapons expert Joanna Tan, the legendary "Gun Honey," off the grid, recuperating from her last job, a vengeful rival takes her place - and frames Joanna for murder.

The art is detailed yet simple, everyone looks great and Joanna "Gun Honey" Tan is consistently drawn beautiful both in various outfits and frequently with nothing at all. She has a tragic background as her father and brothers were killed when someone blew up their place. More than any kind of central theme, pulp and grindhouse are about using certain aesthetics and elements to create a specific experience. I finished the series, enjoyed the issues i read because the artist Ang Hor Kheng has great potential with noir comics. When things go awry after effortlessly smuggling a firearm into a high-security prison that leads to mass casualties, she finds herself trapped and forced by the U.That said, Kheng stays away from gratuitous cheesecake poses or silly body posture simply for aesthetics. I started reading this series out of respect for Charles Ardai, the great work with Hard Case Crime. It was strange seeing the main protagonist nude half the book (usually for no reason), but it is great art thought the book from an up and coming artist.
