Synopsis

Bouncer, the one-armed gunslinger, is the law inside the Inferno Saloon. This collection complies his adventures and showdowns, from his family's violent legacy, to his stint as Barrio City's executioner, to his misguided attempts at love - all populated by the Wild West's most perverse and bizarre characters. Mastermind writer and filmmaker Alexandro Jodorowsky rides out with artist Francois Boucq, whose savage vision vividly captures the American West in all its gritty glory.

About this title

Review:

"After absorbing Francois Boucq's illustrated panels and Alejandro Jodorowsky's writing about four pages into Bouncer: The One-Armed Gunslinger, I found myself sitting up straighter in my seat due to my growing elation at the fact I had found what I've been looking for in comics when it comes to Westerns." - SciFiMonkeys.com "Having always been a fan of Jodorowsky's writing, I am now on a mission to track down more contemporary English language translations of work by Boucq." - 20three.com "The world of Bouncer may be strange and dark, but it's the real thing." - TheMillions.com "Boucqs art is just great. Intense fights: check. Sweeping landscapes: check. The colors he uses combined with his art when melded together bring a grit that is perfect for this piece of comic art. " - ComicAttack.net
