Blue has almost made it back to the BlisterGate in his mission to return the dying general's love-to his Earth-wife. The only problem? He'll have to cross a battlefield to get there, with both the Rebels and the BXF soldiers out to get him and no 6GG in sight.
Stokely's artwork is cartoony, but once you settle into it, it serves the story very well, because it's highly emotive and extremely detailed. Six-Gun Gorilla is the kind of book that will read best when collected, so don't hesitate to pick up the trade when you can and follow Blue's metafictional quest to accept his pain and save his universe from a life of desperately grasping for emotional engagement through rubbernecking at the suffering of others. It's a book that has defied expectations, truly provoked thought, and maybe helped a person or two not be so frozen by potentially negative outcomes that they never actually attempt anything that would qualify as living a life.

With a big and moving conclusion, Six-Gun Gorilla manage to bring its story to a fitting and beautiful end that makes the most of the talents behind the creative team. Congratulations to Simon Spurrier, Jeff Stokely and Andr May and the rest of the team behind this book for a bizarre, yet thrilling ride. Read Full Review
Is it perfect? No, but for what Six-Gun Gorilla lacks in uber-polished storytelling, it makes up for in sheer scope, ambition and cool ideas. Ultimately Mr. Spurrier and his team succeed in taking us through a zany journey in one of the most creative worlds in comics at the moment. It's a ride I had great fun on. I'm sure you will too.

This issue has reinvigorated me on the series and I think a re-read is in order. Spurrier left the door open for this to transition to an ongoing title and it will be interesting to see if it continues. Read Full Review
