Reed Gunther Vol. 1 TP from Image Comics

Reed Gunther is a very fun series, which is filled with great humor and reminds us of those classic cartoons we grew up to, except that this one involves a bear-riding cowboy! We need a series that allows us to laugh and not always need a serious side. We have enjoyed this series from the beginning of joining Image Comics in full color. The Houghton brothers have done this series right! Here is one of our first posts and reviews of Reed Gunther. We also were lucky to win a contest for the Wanted Poster Contest.


The wild west adventures of Reed Gunther, Sterling, Starla, and all of Shane and Chris Houghton's colorful characters will be gathered together into their first trade paperback from Image Comics this November with the arrival of Shane and Chris Houghton's REED GUNTHER, VOL. 1 TP. This colorful collection of excitement, friendship, and adventure is guaranteed to be fun for folks of all ages!
Scores of comics industry professionals have been won over by REED GUNTHER's many charms, leading to the inclusion of some incredible extra material, such as pin-ups by the likes of Stan Sakai (Usagi Yojimbo), Robb Mommaerts (Shrek), and Guy Davis (Nevermen, B.P.R.D., Judge Dredd). The collection also features a foreward written by Davis, in which he explained the appeal of REED GUNTHER: "Aside from having monsters in it (and I do love monster tales), the book, at the heart of it, is just plain fun!"

In REED GUNTHER, VOL. 1 TP, our hero Reed Gunther and his trusty grizzly bear steed will bumble their way through the wild west, fighting giant snakes, hoards of mole creatures, a resurrected John Henry zombie, freak show freaks, special government agents, and all sorts of wild monsters created by an ancient mysterious idol!


REED GUNTHER, VOL. 1 TP (SEP110428, ISBN: 978-1-60706-462-6),  184-page full-color all-ages western comedy adventure for $14.99, will come galloping full speed into a store near you on November 9. For more information on Reed Gunther, Sterling, and all their unruly friends and foes, visit www.reedgunther.com.
