In the nuclear wasteland of the near future life has become a harsh struggle for survival. Wandering between ramshackle towns, the teenage Kid is picked up by a band of raiders: the maniac Wolf, taciturn Dolly, compassionate Tank and charming Pretty Boy. She soon discovers that the group survives through cannibalism – the last taboo in this shattered world – and that someone is searching for them.
Not bothering with such unnecessities as set up or scene setting, the first page kicks off with Kid meeting the others, after which the story quickly spirals into an extended action sequence and from there things barely pause for a breather. The short chapters and kinetic pace keep the story flowing at a relentless rate as the group violently hops from one settlement to the next with the goal of discovering who is targeting them and why.
