Review: TRIGUN

 Let's wrap this month up with a series that's had a recent resurgence, but how does its original source material hold up?

TRIGUN (Toraigan), by Yasuhiro Nightow.  First published in 1995 and first published in North America in 2003.



PLOT:

Vash the Stampede is a legend.  He's the Human Typhoon, a man with a 60 billion dollar bounty on his head for bringing unimaginable amounts of damage to the world of Gunsmoke.  Every cut-rate bandit and bounty hunter wants Vash dead, while Meryl and Milly of the Bernadino Insurance Company simply want to find him to keep his damage (and their premiums) to a minimum.  When they do find him, he's not a monster but instead a goofy, donut-loving man who wants to avoid violence instead of creating it.  Unfortunately for Vash, trouble is determined to find him and he's the only one who can stop it.
