Gun Honey: Heatseeker Exposed 1&2

A return to the Gun Honey universe. I quite enjoyed this series when I discovered it earlier in the year. Both the main titular series and the Heatseeker spin off. This next installment is a part of the Heatseeker line of the series with the new branch called Exposed.

This installment follows the exposure of Dahlia Rivers by a journalist who outs her and an ex-client who is out to silence her once and for all. A typical pulpy read with sun, sex and violence. Great plotting and characters and action. One of the better comic book pulps out there.

Two in one for this post, both involving the Gun Honey comic/graphic novel. I am up to date with the series as of writing this.

Two very interesting reads and full of great plot and knowing the formula and what to expect it was a fun ride to see the stories develop. The main Gun Honey series seems to ended for now and I can’t see where that story goes from here with all the loose ends seemingly tied up.

The Heatseeker spin off has a bit more legs to it I think, with the whole little girl dynamic to the new character added to it with her healing properties.

These two series certainly have piqued my interest in comics/graphic novels and I look forward to reading more of them, certainly fun to use to Colorsoft with them and see them in all their glory.

Gun Honey by Charles Ardai

My first time reading a non manga comic or graphic novel. It was an enjoyable read and a great noir or pulp type genre. It certainly has the art aimed at a specific audience, when the females are drawn like that you know whats coming and its not Joanna Tan (titular Gun Honey) in a shirt lol. Theres plenty of action, nudity, humour and enough plot to make it work.

I am getting back into noir and these are a fun change of pace and enough plot to keep you engaged. Obvious the typical comic book body standard with stacked women and Herculean, handsome men. I am curious to read the rest.

Its not highbrow but it is highly fun.

3.5/5
