Titan Comics/Hard Case Crime Announce ‘Gun Honey’ Crime Comic Mini-Series

by Olly MacNamee

Titan Comics and Hard Case Crime announce a new 4-part crime comic series, Gun Honey written by Charles Ardai (co-founder of Hard Case Crime), with art by Ang Hor Kheng. All wrapped up in sensational covers by legendary James Bond film poster artist Robert McGinnis and Bill Sienkiewicz, as well as variant covers to come by Adam Hughes, Kendrick Lim, Jay Anacleto, Chris Wahl, Fay Dalton, Andrea Camerini, and more.

“Praised by comic creators Max Allan Collins (Ms. Tree), Ed Brubaker (Captain America) and Duane Swierczynski (Birds of Prey), Gun Honey is a story about weapons supplier Joanna Tan, the best in the world at providing the perfect weapon at the perfect moment.

But when a gun she smuggles into a high-security prison leads to the escape of a brutal criminal, the U.S. government gives her an ultimatum: track him down or spend the rest of her life in a cell.”

And it would seem Gun Honey has been a long time coming as Ardai explains:

“Gun Honey is a project I’ve been working on ever since we launched Hard Case Crime Comics five years ago, and I’m thrilled to finally get to share it with readers. Anyone who loves Modesty Blaise or Alias or Uma Thurman in Tarantino’s Kill Bill will be drawn to Joanna Tan’s story the same way I was, and anyone who loves great comic book art will be floored by Ang Hor Kheng’s stunning debut.”

Gun Honey #1 launches September 15th from Titan Comics and Hard Case Crime.
