Bambi and her Pink Gun v.1 by Atsushi Kaneko – 200 pages
“Me Bambi,” she announces herself, shortly before she plugs
you between the eyes. Pink-haired, pink pistol-toting Bambi only allows natural food
into her beautiful pure body, loves Mr. Pei the Bear on TV, and cracks herself up
reading Kant. Having kidnapped a young
boy she dubs Pampi from the Gabba King, a sadistic Fat Elvis-like pop singer, she’s
on the run through an industrial landscape choked with fast food joints
with a price of $5 million yen on her head, trying to deliver Pampi to the “old
men”. What follows is one pulpy
Tarantino-worthy bloodbucket-bloated shootout after another, as Bambi leaves a
trail of dead assassins in her wake, from gangsters to grandmas. Events come to a climax when the arms dealer’s
hideout where she's laying low is blown to bits, and Pampi ends up in the hands of
a cowboy gang intent on claiming the bounty.
Can Bambi get Pampi back? This
manga is drawn in a more Western comic style, with a brush, and printed in no
less than pink ink.
