.357 Magnum Opus (Table U06)

Booth #U06

Bounty hunter Sexx Pistol never kept track of the body count, until it was one of her own lying dead on the ground. Struck with grief, she swore she would leave Kassius Del Mar, the man she held accountable for her partner’s death, and her violent past behind. But it’s hard to pass up easy cash for a quick hit job. Lured back into the dark world of drugs, death and destruction, she and Kassius must team up once more to track down Bastian Braun on the orders of powerful crime lord, Lyndon Baines. Baines despises when his laundered money goes missing, and when Braun goes missing with it, he sends Sexx Pistol and Kassius to take care of the problem. It seems simple enough, but Bastian’s vast web of criminal contacts, crooked cops, and stores of cash make him annoyingly evasive. Baines’ patience runs out when Bastian escapes the bounty hunters and Kassius kills the wrong guy. As frustrations and collateral damage rise, Sexx Pistol and Kassius will have to overcome their deeply entangled past to complete the job, or risk being Baines’ next targets. .357 MAGNUM OPUS is my debut self-published graphic novel, complete at 160-pages and fully illustrated by MingCheng Shen. I’m a San Francisco-based writer originally from Kabul, Afghanistan. My family and I moved to California amid civil unrest when I was a child. This story was inspired by the edgy, gory films of Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie, and will appeal to action-genre moviegoers.
