In the forbidding desert world of Gunsmoke, a mysterious bounty hangs over Vash the Stampede’s head, and the gun-toting pacifist can’t seem to find a moment’s respite. Vash is no ordinary pistolero equipped with a weapon capable of punching holes in a planet, which explains why the locals tremble at the mere mention of his name. But sixty billion double dollars is no ordinary bounty, and every lucky psychopath in creation is out to claim you dead or alive—preferably dead!
