Lovely illustrations with a great visual storytelling style. I found the story itself overly simplistic though, and unsatisfying. Part of it might be my unfamiliarity with the main character, I’m not sure if this is the first of a series of stories on this character or somewhere in the middle. I think there was too much dialogue exposition, and would be much more interested in seeing some of those aspects visualized. I think the character suffers because there just isn’t enough world building to establish the ground rules to appreciate all her talents.

That said, I’d still try reading another story involving her.

I really like Daisy as a character, and her relationship with Tom is interesting and well thought-out. I like the setting and the style of the art, but the story didn't live up to expectations, specifically and without being spoilery, how did Tom know what he did when he did?

I loved this. LOVED this. The art is fantastic, the story is great (Steampunkish wild west? Lady gunslinger with absurdly long sharpshooting rifle? Love story between an outlaw and a lawman? YES PLZ THX). I also loved the "bonus material" at the end -- I liked seeing early concept art and reading about the coloring process. Can't wait for more Daisy Kutter.

Retired outlaw Daisy Kutter is manipulated into one last job, a train heist, a job to prove that her employers new security system is flawless. Of course, her employer isn't about to stand for the bad press if she actually does succeed in robbing his train!

There's some great banter between Daisy and her former partner-in-crime-turned-sheriff, Tom, and Kibuishi does a great job of making her the star while still allowing Tom to help her in various ways. The robots (yes, it's a robot western) have great designs, and Kibuishi's great at staging his scenes, whether action or quiet.

Definitely an all-around winner.

Kazu Kibuishi, author of Amulet. Comparisons to "Firefly" meets "Star Wars." Intrigue! I read this and really enjoyed it. It's a classic Western (complete with train robbery) but it has robots. Can't beat that. You also get Kibuishi's great artwork and sense of action. Where is the next Daisy book?

One last job before accepting going straight
Stunning sequentials, great protagonist

Robots and gunslinging! Heck yeah! Plus Kibushi has a great imagination.

Daisy is a retired gunslinger, but she’s not very happy with her new life. She’s restless and ready for more excitement, and she’s not very happy with her ex partner who has become the towns sheriff. He wants her to become a deputy, but she says no. There’s great interaction between the two of them.

She loses a bet to Mr. Winters, and agrees to rob a train to pay him back, but of course something goes wrong, as it seems like Winters actually had other plans for her that he didn’t bother to disclose to anyone, and he doesn’t plan on letting her make it out alive.

Kibushi has created great characters full of personality and fun dialogue. His art is clean and clear. It’s cartoony but a great style. The world he’s created is full of robots and cowboys, very old and new at the same time. It’s a short read, and never gets boring or slow. The action is quick and the illustrations work well for the fast sequences.
