About the series
In the mid-2000s, Axiom published this four-issue miniseries that fused Hong Kong action cinema with pulp adventure, following a martial arts expert who stumbles into a hidden metropolis of ancient secrets and modern weaponry. The title itself telegraphs the core aesthetic: a hyper-stylized blend of gunplay and kung fu, rendered with kinetic energy by its creative team. Though brief, Gun Fu: The Lost City stands as a cult artifact of the era’s experimentation with genre mash-ups in independent comics.
