Daisy Kutter, The Last Train – Comic
Posted by on September 22nd,2006
MikeST found this lovely comic called Daisy Kutter, The Last Train, by Kazu Kibuishi. It looks like a delightfully stylised twist on the Western Steampunk genre – with a worn young lady gunslinger (with phenomenally quirky hair), her Sheriff friend, and most wonderfully – mechanical machines walking the Wild West streets. The art of Kibuishi does very well to portray the openness and occasional desolation of the frontier, while still able to conjour a lively saloon atmosphere.
I admit, I’ve only read the sample pages thus far, but I’m tempted to take the leap with Miss Kutter, and see what dastardly plots she must foil. Because there’s always some plot foiling to be done.
