Gun Honey Vol 2: Blood For Blood & Heatseeker: A Gun Honey Series by Charles Ardai

The second volume in the series and it picks up from where the previous volume ended. Again another fun and thrilling read, knowing what to expect I enjoyed it for what it was. And there is sufficient back story to add depth to it too.

Could easily see these having been 90s or early 00s B Movies or even modern ones.

Third part and I have found this quite enjoyable. It’s short and sweet and lots going on. Perhaps a little cliché and corny but it’s no worse than Roger Moore James Bond, with more boobs haha. Our main characters are largely absent in this volume, as I think this one is more of an off-shoot series than canon, but hopefully they make a return in the next. I am enjoying the story.

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
