Daisy Kutter is a young, cute, blond ex-gunslinger/wild west villain in a world peopled by both humans and sentient robots. Â She has recently retired to run a dry goods store, but misses her old life, feeling stifled in a small town where her ex-partner and sometimes boyfriend is the marshall–the voice of the law. Â So when she’s asked to rob a train by the man who owns it–as a way of testing the newly upgraded security systems–her longing for her old life gets the better of her common sense, and she takes the job. Â Of course, it all goes horribly wrong…
Steampunk meets the Wild West in this well-told, adorably illustrated and all-around fun book. Â Kazu Kibuishi’s greyscale art perfectly reinforces the tone of this book– the drawings integrate the robots and the cowboys into a seamless whole. Â This is a book that will attract both the manga and the superhero audiences, an enjoyable and action-filled comic for teens.
