Steel Harbor, the down-and-dirty industrial metropolis of Comics' Greatest World, was torn apart last summer by widespread riots among superpowered gang members. Times are tough, and the people who live there can't even count on the police!

But they can count on Barb Wire. Armed with her arsenal, motorcycle, and an attitude that just won't quit, Barb is willing to right any wrong in Steel Harbor -- if the price is right! Joined by her "partner," the hideous but helpful Machine, Barb launches a new series of gritty adventures -- with Motorhead and Wolf Gang on hand to make sure the action doesn't stop!

In this issue, Barb Wire begins a three-part struggle with Deathcard, a mysterious assassin who seems to anticipate her every move! It just doesn't get any cooler than this!
