But Rally’s “real” job doesn’t pay the bills, her hobby does. And her hobby is bounty hunting, bringing the most wanted men and women in the Chicago area to justice—dressed in her sharp suit and tie, and driving her Shelby Cobra GT 500!In Gunsmith Cats Burst Omnibus vol. 2, an illegal road race exclusively for V8 freaks is underway. While big-money bets from the audience are flying fast and furious online, Rally’s behind the wheel of her new Mustang II King Cobra to keep a tail on Bean Bandit. Bean’s the favorite to win the race…but his obsessed nemesis Detective Percy is in the contest too. And Percy’s not what you’d call a clean cop—in fact he’s so dirty, he’s taking a 10% cut of the bets…plus he plans to throw the odds by having Bean wrecked by hired mercenaries armed with rocket-propelled grenades!Then it’s back to Rally’s side hustle of bounty hunting—but before she can collect on a Mafia informer who’s jumped bail, he’s downed by a sniper working for none other than Rally’s own arch-enemy, Iron Goldie. She’s been assumed deceased ever since Rally put a bullet in her head, but Goldie’s not out for revenge—because she doesn’t remember who shot her!

That might prove a little dangerous for Rally, but the Mob’s hostage might convince her to cooperate…The Gunsmith Cats Burst Omnibus is using the 2000s unflopped version of the manga, so that it reads in the original Japanese style, from right to left.For mature audiences.
