Bolt Crank eats a gun, digests it, pulls another gun out of his hand. That's the entire show. It sounds stupid. It's not. Every object he consumes becomes a weapon, a tool, a metaphor for what a mercenary actually is: a tool that swallows the world's violence and spits it back out on command. The anthology structure fractures the narrative deliberately, forcing you to read each episode as a separate statement about power, consumption, and what it costs to be useful. It looks like a western crossed with a military manual, sounds like a spaghetti western, and thinks like experimental art pretending to be an action show.

Bolt Crank is known as the finest mercenary in the world, and his edge is a strange one: he can swallow nearly any object, usually metal and weapons. When a job calls for it, he can bring those same weapons and items back out through his right hand. Across twelve episodes, this 1998 TV series continues his adventures, mixing action, adventure and science fiction.
