Think Mad Max: Fury Road redefined “crazy”? Then you haven’t received an eyeful – let alone dozens of eyefuls – of Hard Boiled artist Geof Darrow’s utterly mad-as-a-hatter opus Shaolin Cowboy: Shemp Buffet.
Shaolin Cowboy is a Darrow creation who’s been around since, oh, 2004 but whose appearances span a measly 11 issues in as many years. Seven issues were published by Burlyman Entertainment, the imprint of the Wachowskis (only natural, since Darrow was “conceptual designer” on all three of their Matrix films) ... and then the Cowboy went into hibernation from 2007 until Dark Horse picked it up in 2013.
