God forgives... HE DOESN'T!

SIX-GUN GORILLA is the epic saga of a pistol-packing Silverback and his quest for vengeance. Prepare yourself for the strangest, most startling Old West hero of them all!

Back by popular demand! Our last campaign was the surprise hit of 2019. In 2020 we at Team Six-Gun are cranking things up several notches. Here's what we've got for you:

  • The original SIX-GUN GORILLA: LONG DAYS OF VENGEANCE 148 page graphic novel  collecting chapters #1-#6, signed by the author, now with a stunning variant cover by Canaan White.
  • The latest 24 page chapter/issue in the series, THE BIG GUNDOWN signed by the author.
  • You have the option to buy just the LONG DAYS OF VENGEANCE graphic novel or THE BIG GUNDOWN by themselves. Buy them together, I knock $5 bucks off the price.

 

It all begins with SIX-GUN GORILLA: LONG DAYS OF VENGEANCE is 148 pages of critically acclaimed escapist Pulp adventure full of epic gun-fights, tense showdowns, saloon brawls, horse chases, and righteous payback!

 


And check out this killer cover gallery featuring a variety of amazing talents:

Chadwick Haverland

The saga continues in SIX-GUN GORILLA: THE BIG GUNDOWN, 24 pages of adventure and carnage. Our heroes finally take the fight to bad guys and a battle ensues that will make the local undertaker a very busy man! It ain't called THE BIG GUNDOWN for nothin'!

And now all orders will come with this wicked cool bitchin' STICKER by Mark Marianelli!

 

East Congo, 1849:  A baby gorilla is orphaned when a big-game hunter slaughters his entire tribe.  Placed aboard a boat to Europe, a kindly circus owner, Malloy, wins him in a card game and raises him like a son next to his daughter, Abigail, who names the tiny simian Kumba (an African word for "roar"),

Texas, 1866. Kumba has grown to maturity and become the star attraction of Professor Malloy's Traveling Circus, putting on a spectacular show as the most novel trick shot artist West of the Pecos, the Six-Gun Gorilla! Abigail and Kumba yearn to see the big cities in the East, but Malloy wants to put as much space as possible between them and the Civil War.

The war, however, comes to them in the form of Giuliano Schmidt, a Union spy wounded and on the run from hired gun Gravesend and his gang of cut-throats. When Gravesend discovers that Malloy and his circus family have been helping Schmidt, he exacts a terrible revenge. Now Kumba takes up his guns and sets out on the vengeance trail, a journey that will lead him to unexpected places, old friends and a conspiracy that could change the course of history.

One of the true unexpected pleasures of this project has been the response of the critics. I had a feeling that some of them would really get a kick out of the book, but I didn't expect this level of love:

"It don't get much better than this, Pal. A rootin--tootin' six-gun shootin', Western adventure that makes me run off at the adjectives. Wonderful stuff." - JOE R. LANSDALE (author of Bubba Ho-Tep , Hap and Leonard and Cold In July)

“...it has real weight and emotion… a well-crafted western that just happens to have a gun-toting gorilla as the main character. If you like westerns, gorillas, crazy concepts, or just plain ol’ good comics, then this is one worth checking out.” - COMIC BOOK THERAPY

“Hats off to creators Brian Christgau and Adrian Sibar (whose art on this book is just magnificent!) because they have created a very compelling world.” - CRUSTULA.COM

"Who can say no to a well-executed western starring a ferocious six-gun wielding simian? ...a really good comic-book." - THE COMIC AGE

“Christgau’s story is setting itself up to be a fantastic reimagining of a lost classic, and one worth keeping an eye on.” - SUPER ATOMICA

“Together with artist Adrian Sibar, writer Brian Christgau has revised and changed-up the classic Six-Gun Gorilla pulp tale, blending it with beloved old school western cinematic tropes that make it an ingenious cross between Clint Eastwood’s Pale Rider and a wild Twilight Zone episode.” - NERDVANA

“Read this comic book. I’m dead serious. Find it, buy it, and enjoy how Six-Gun Gorilla: Long Days of Vengeance succeeds as any good comic book should.” - COMIC BASTARDS

“…a well-crafted western that just happens to have a gun-toting gorilla as the main character. If you like westerns, gorillas, crazy concepts, or just plain ol’ good comics, then this is one worth checking out.” - COMIC BOOK THERAPY

"...a work of art that pushes the classic notions of a true western with modern ideals and updated storytelling providing a cohesive product that is a ride to read and pleasure to look at." - - PULP CULTURED

“…an indie book that deserves to play with the big boys.” - GEEKASM

 

And coming soon, the epic #ComicsGate DOC ALPHA/DOC SALEM/SIX-GUN GORILLA crossover:
