THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SEQUEL TO THE BESTSELLING GRAPHIC NOVEL GUN HONEY, WRITTEN BY AWARD WINNER CHARLES ARDAI, CO-FOUNDER OF HARD CASE CRIME!

Fans of the first graphic novel and classic pulp crime fiction will get a thrill out of this fast-paced, mystery thriller. Features a cover by superstar artist Stanley "Artgerm" Lau! Gun Honey is currently in development as a television series by Piller/Segan (Haven, The Dead Zone) and Malaysia-based Double Vision (The Bridge).

Joanna Tan is back, sexier and deadlier than ever… She’ll get you the weapon you need, when you need it, where you need it -- no matter how impossible. But this time, somebody else is planting the weapons. Somebody who’s causing a lot of trouble. And with Joanna’s MO, the authorities are making her their number one suspect. It’s now up to Joanna to prove her innocence, and find the woman responsible for framing her for murder!

"The finest kind of pulp noir." – Ed Brubaker (Captain America)

"GUN HONEY is sexy, violent and fast, a blistering burning house of a narrative." – Max Allan Collins (Road to Perdition)

“You’ve never met a femme quite as fatale as Joanna Tan.” – Duane Swierczynski (Birds of Prey)

"Charles Ardai is a very smart and very cool fellow.” – Stephen King

"Action-packed read." - Bleeding Cool

"An R-rated gritty noir, sexy spy thriller..." - Scoop

"Order is restored to the world and Gun Honey is back with a Bang! 9.5 out of 10!" - The GWW

"Cinematic visuals, taut storytelling, and plenty of snappy charm. 9.5 out of 10!" - Comical Opinions

"An empowering story that has laid the foundations for an explosive arc, a fierce femme fatale story that is full of fierce vengance and explosive payback, this arc is definitely going to be one not to be missed." - Get Your Comic On

"If you like crime and noir comics, this one's for you!" - Planes, Trains and Comic Books

"Right from the get-go, I was hooked!" - Raging Rainbow

"Pulp noir shenanigans at its finest, with a healthy dose of grindhouse mixed in for good measure. Charles Ardai’s story is brimming with beautiful (and naked) women, gunfights, catfights, explosions, clever twists, and a new status quo for our titular (ahem) hero. If you like comics for sheer spectacle, this one’s got it all." - Comical Opinions

"Charles Ardai completes the second volume of Gun Honey with his usual flair of action and sexiness...a fun read from the get go, with its mix of action, sexiness, curves and bullets." - Comic Crusaders

"...Another smartly crafted action thriller from Charles Ardai and Ang Hor Kheng." Slings & Arrows
