Barb Wire

The definitive Barb Wire comics collection in one oversized compendium! Tough as nails and stubborn as a mule—badass bounty hunter Barb Wire puts the “drop dead” in drop dead gorgeous. Steel Harbor is the American dream turned nightmare. This once great city was a monument to American industry and ingenuity, but now it’s a scrap heap of shuttered factories, decaying neighborhoods, and wasted potential being carved up and fought over by superpowered street gangs. But where others see a warzone, Barb sees opportunity. When a bounty can punch through a wall, summon a tornado, or fly, they tend to have a big fat price on their head which is exactly what Barb needs if she’s going to keep her money-pit hard rock bar from being shuttered. The trick is staying alive long enough collect. Barb Wire is a full-throttle romp of flying fists, leather jackets, heavy metal, bounty hunting, motor bikes, and super-powered bad attitudes as told by a gang of comic book’s greatest storytellers including series-creator Chris Warner and rockstars John Arcudi, Adam Hughes, Patrick Oliffe, Paul Gulacy, Tim Bradstreet, Dan Lawliss, Mike Manley, Adam Warren, Dave Dorman, Mike Mignola, Andrew Robinson, and more!

Steel Harbor is a hell of a town, with the emphasis on hell, an urban wasteland of shuttered factories, decaying neighborhoods, and broken dreams. Crime and street violence are the soup of the day, every day, but if you're a bounty hunter, every day in Metal City can be Christmas—assuming you survive, since the worst of the Harbor's most wanted can fly, summon up tornadoes, or tear cars in half with their bare hands. But a skip's a skip, and manhunter Barb Wire is the best tracker in the business, and no super gangster is too tough—as long as there's a fat price on his, her, or its head. As beautiful as she is lethal, Barb Wire really puts the drop dead in drop-dead gorgeous. Her boots may be made for walking, but they kick butt real pretty too.
