Gunslingers

When a young girl is accused of murder for shooting her parents' killers, her gunslinger grandfather must come out of retirement to rescue her from a hanging.

It's Josephine's 12th birthday, and she and her farmer parents go into a small Western town for a treat. But her parents are murdered by a group of carousing cowboys, including the son of a rich local resident.

When the son shows up at the sheriff's office the next day to explain away the circumstances, Josephine takes the sheriff's gun and shoots the son dead. As a result, his rich father insists she hang--especially when he finds out she's kin to a famous retired gunfighter, Ethan Fuller.

Ethan Fuller shows up in town to break Josephine out of town and take her someplace safe, but they're pursued relentlessly by possies and hired gunmen, and Ethan has to make a last stand and answer for his past crimes in order to save his only remaining family.

Jordi Armengol began his art career at age two with a huge graffitti in the hallway of his family's apartment (ask his mum) in Barcelona, Spain. With a passion for comics and science fiction, Jordi studied fine arts at Escola de la Llotja, then worked for sixteen years in corporate visual and graphic design while also creating fantasy and science-fiction book covers. In 2014 he joined Norma Editorial as a cover artist and writer, then entered the American comics market with Rogues! and Offworlder with writer Mike Baron. Cloaked is his first Dark Horse project, with more in the works. When Jordi isn't drawing, you'll find him reading Neil Gaiman or Cormac McCarthy or laughing with his beloved Laura.
