"cool, vicious and fun"   - Dave Potter, Savantmag.com

In a city filled with trust-fund babies and walking stereotypes, Heavy Parker rules the punk scene as a benevolent dictator. Or at least he does until Missy, Heavy's straight-laced girlfriend, goes away for college. How can a guy like Heavy be expected to handle a long-distance relationship? Short answer: He can't. Missy returns, reborn as a big city punk rocker, pissed as all hell. Can Heavy survive this threat to his sovereignty or will he just wind up POUNDED?

This tale of broken hearts and busted heads is brought to you by acclaimed writer Brian Wood (CHANNEL ZERO, COUSCOUS EXPRESS) and artist Steve Rolston (QUEEN & COUNTRY, MEK).
