    And as an added bonus, you can toast marshmallows while you run from angry undead female bounty hunters. 😀

    “Their brands were still on fire, and their hooves were made of steel”
    This would be the one horse who could catch the devils heard in these endless skies-
    uh, got distracted by a song thats been playing in my head since my head put together *brand* and *on fire*

    Awesome. So Steampunk vs Magic it is?
    …I am sorry for the next town over, that will be stampeeded by FireHorseâ„¢ and SteamPunkHorseâ„¢,
    carrying Flamewhipping Hunter and Gun-totting Angel Eyes.

    I figured Hunter was whipping up some major mojo, but this turned out even cooler than I was expecting. The flame effects are great, especially in the last panel, and the reflection in her eye is also a very nifty touch.

    SO COOL. Love this page. My thoughts on the plot: Okay, so Hunter must have resurrected Vane at some point, via fire magic and the brand on her hip, just like Outlaw here. Hence, her fiery hair and death-like pallor– and of course the scene where she rises from her coffin in flames. Did he kill her, THEN resurrect her? Did Vane gain her mastery over weapons and cyborg technology by herself, or was some of Hunter’s power transferred to her during the resurrection? Outlaw has obviously gained some, er, fiery characteristics– maybe Vane gained a kind of super-blacksmithy-type ability as HER “fire talent.” On the other hand, maybe she already had some power and refused to give it up to Hunter, so he killed and resurrected her in the hopes of having control over her and the power– which is why she’s so pissed. Where is this power coming from anyway? How is it connected with the glowing sunflowers, and that lady’s necklace? Where do the hints of Vane & Hunter’s romantic past come into play? Are the horses dead and resurrected too, or do the brands merely indicate ownership? If something is dead and then resurrected, can it die again? Hearts was shot and killed, but Vane doesn’t seem affected by bullets or hanging…and Diamonds can bleed, but can also survive being cyborg-ized. How did Vane end up with Diamonds anyway? What color will the fourth horse of the apocalypse be? Is Outlaw’s new name Spades or Clubs? MORE STORY PLZ!!!!

      I suspect that he didn’t kill her, at least not intentionally, as that would be a rather odd choice for a character that has otherwise been entirely collected. I mean, why bring someone who has reason to kill you back from the dead?

      My guess, Hunter killed her by accident and the brand was his attempt at making amends, only she didn’t want to be brought back, and was not please about dying in the first place.

        Well, she had a flashback of Hunter branding her.
        She had to be alive at this point o.ô
        So he branded her. Thats not a nice thing to do.

        And since this brand seems to have occult functionality…
        I doubt this was an accident and/or unplanned.

        From deep in my drug hazed past…
        Aphrodite’s Child 666;
        I saw the second Horse
        the horseman held a sword

        The leading horse is white
        The second horse is red
        The third one is a black,
        The last one is a green

    Which brings me back to the first panel… sooooo our “heroine” was reborn in flames and for some reason she hates the guy who just resurected a horse in flaming sensation… fancy that.

    Okay, I just read all the way up to here, and I am impressed, awed, amazed…..there’s a lot of words for what I’m feeling.

    But seriously, this a really, really beautiful work of art.

    I’m gonna refer this around and all. Can’t wait for the next page!!

    This is by far the best western in excistence. Steampunk weapons, undead anti hero, and a bad ass outlaw with fire powers. It doesn’t get any better than this.

    I just discovered your webcomic because of an ad to fund your book on another comic I read and I’m hooked! I love it and I’m going to buy the book so will contribute to getting it published. Very, very nice! I’m completely fooled here, have no idea where you are going with this and can’t wait to find out! A lot of other folks are tossing around some pretty interesting guesses and I think I will wait until I have the book in hand so I can burn through all of it at once and see what happens! It’s beautifully drawn, I love the breaks in the fourth wall, the sepia stains here and there, the varying layouts keep it fresh and I love the scorched edges and burn outs! I will share this and like it on facebook if you have a FB page! I can’t say enough good things about this but thank you for creating this and sharing it with us!
