	Overview "Six-Gun Gorilla: Long Days of Vengeance" is the rip-snortin’, bone-crushing, brain-blasting story of a pistol-packing Gorilla and his epic quest for revenge on the cut-throats who murdered the circus owner who raised him like a son. Prepare yourself for the strangest, most startling Old West legend of them all! East Congo, 1849: A baby gorilla is orphaned when a big-game hunter slaughters his entire tribe. Placed aboard a boat to Europe, a kindly circus owner, Malloy, wins him in a card game and raises him like a son next to his daughter, Abigail, who names the tiny simian Kumba (an African word for "roar"), Texas, 1866. Kumba has grown to maturity and become the star attraction of Professor Malloy's Traveling Circus, putting on a spectacular show as the most novel trick shot artist West of the Pecos, the Six-Gun Gorilla! Abigail and Kumba yearn to see the big cities in the East, but Malloy wants to put as much space as possible between them and the Civil War. The war, however, comes to them in the form of Giuliano Schmidt, a Union spy wounded and on the run from hired gun Gravesend and his gang of cut-throats. When Gravesend discovers that Malloy and his circus family have been helping Schmidt, he exacts a terrible revenge. Now Kumba takes up his guns sets out on the vengeance trail, a journey that will take him unexpected places, old friends and a conspiracy that could change the course of history. 144 pages of brain-blasting, bone-crunching, nerve-snapping old-school escapist Pulp adventure with heart! SIX-GUN GORILLA: LONG DAYS OF VENGEANCE is exactly what you think it is: epic gun-fights, saloon brawls, horse chases, and righteous payback. If seeing an enraged 800 pound gorilla unleashing a hailstorm of blazing death with pistols the size of Howitzer cannons gets your heart all aflutter, this is the book for you! Let's have us a look-see at some of that sweet art by super-artist Adrián Sibar, whose stylish artwork has graced titles like Batgirl for DC and Planet Of The Apes and Star Wars. He has been a joy to work with, a great visual storyteller who invests every panel with style and emotion.
