''Shaolin Cowboy'' is an American comic book series created, written (with the exception of the opening dialog in the issues of the original 2004–2007 run being written by the Wachowskis) and drawn by artist Geof Darrow. The book was published irregularly by Burlyman Entertainment. The last issue ''Shaolin Cowboy'' #7 hit the stands in May 2007, a year after #6 went on sale. At the 2011 Toronto, San Diego and New York Comic Cons, Dark Horse Comics announced that they would be publishing three new ''Shaolin Cowboy'' comics, starting with a new Number One. The first issue of the new Dark Horse series has been solicited for release on October 9, 2013 as an ongoing series. ==Plot summary== The book is about an unnamed former Shaolin monk who wanders the land with a talking mule named Lord Evelyn Dunkirk Winniferd Esq. the Third. Having been "asked" to leave the Shaolin temple, he has since had a bounty placed on his head, which many are eager to collect. Given the Shaolin Cowboy's prowess in martial arts, however, this will be very difficult. Taking place in an unspecified time setting (as the first issue notes, "the day after yesterday and a week before tomorrow"), the book features extremely detailed artwork and equally violent and absurd action scenes; in one, the main character battles a giant shark with a human head in its mouth using two chainsaws tied on the ends of a long stick -- which all takes place in the canalization in the stomach of a lizard, on whose back a city is located. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shaolin Cowboy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
