Four hardcore heroes. One high-speed torpedo boat. Ten thousand bullets!
Lock n' load with the baddest group of mercenaries ever to hit the high seas of Southeast Asia! Aboard their World War II torpedo boat, the
Black Lagoon, Dutch the Boss, Benny the Mechanic, Revy Two Hand, and Rock, the salaryman from Japan, deliver anything, anywhere. In the dangerous underworld of the Russian Mafia, Chinese triads, Colombian drug cartels, crazed assassins, and ruthless mercenaries, it's hard to know who to trust. But if you've got a delivery to make, and you don't mind a little property damage along the way, you can count on the crew of the
Black Lagoon!
After their trip to Japan, the crew of the
Black Lagoon winds down back in Roanapur. The R&R doesn't last long--Jane, a counterfeiter on the run from Florida-based gangsters, seeks refuge with the Church of Violence, kicking off a hot pursuit involving some of Roanapur's more colorful guns-for-hire. Later, half a world away in Venezuela, a bomb blast shatters what calm Garcia and Roberta have managed to restore to their lives. Garcia tries to sway Roberta from seeking vengeance, but the "Bloodhound of Florencia" will have justice, and woe to anyone who gets in her way!
