This independent episode in the STINZ series reveals what happens when the gun that Stinz thought he'd gotten rid of at The End Of The War -- and probably the last gun on the planet -- turns up in the hands of one of his grandsons. Then Stinz's eldest grandson starts collecting the missing bullets, and Kilan, the Baronin's simple-minded riding monster, inadvertently does a terrible thing to a little peasant girl.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"I love STINZ and this issuelooks like a winner." -- Kim Thompson, Fantagraphics Books
"Inexplicable." -- Cerbus's Guide to Self-Publishing
Donna Barr's STINZ is an addictive delight, for fantasy-lovers, Teutonophiles, or anyone who treasures a well-told tale. Stinz Lwhard and his friends may be half-horses, but in Barr's capable hands they become mirrors of those friends we all know; the ones we laugh with, fight with, get drunk with, and love. She understands Everyman, number of legs notwithstanding, the gorgeous but subtle tapestry of emotion woven into every incident, no matter how ordinary, shows her keen eye for humanity-watching, and that's a rare talent.

The adventures of Stinz will win you on several levels; with finely-crafted characterisations, luminous and insightful storytelling, and the obvious care and passion in every stroke of Barr's pen. She never misses a trick -- and you'll spend hours savouring every one of them. -- Joellyn Auklandus, Elfquest: HIDDEN YEARS, THE WILD HUNT
Donna is one of the most gifted writers and artists in comix today. Read STINZ. It's good. -- Roberta Gregory, WINGING IT, NAUGHTY BITS, ARTISTIC LICENTIOUSNESS.
Her tales mix farcical humor with profound gravity, hope with tragedy -- her characters are fully multi-dimensional, her centaurs certainly as human as any two-legged character in comics today, and Barr's deep-seated understanding of culture has evidently empowered her with a gift for realistic - well, as realistic as one can get when writing centaurs - but unpredictable storytelling -- Stephen D. Wenger, Word On The Shelf, 1998
I love STINZ, and this issue looks like winner. -- Kim Thompson, Fantagraphics Books.
I've drawn a few centaurs in my life, but Donna has created a whole universe of snappy, witty, complicated - not to mention crabby - characters with a fascinating history. -- Cathy Hill, MAD RACCOONS.
If you have any horse sense at all, you're reading STINZ. Donna Barr's extraordinary gifts as a storyteller have you accepting the improbable premise (a centaur in the German cavalry during WW1!) with the greatest of ease. Sharply written and drawn with an energetic flourish, STINZ is a classic. -- Batton Lash, WOLFF & BYRD.
From the Publisher
