Astro City: The Tarnished Angel

It's only Kiefer Square... a run down eyesore of tenements and lost hopes, the home of petty criminals, down-and-outers, hired muscle and worse. And nobody cares — not the cops, not the city, and certainly not the super-heroes that soar above Astro City, making the world safe for everyone else.

So, when someone starts killing the small-time super-villains of Kiefer Square, it falls to one man to do something about it. Steeljack, a.k.a. the Steel-Jacketed Man. Just out of prison, he wants nothing more than a straight job, a place to sleep and three square meals a day.

He's not smart. He's not brave. And he doesn't want the job. But he has something the people of Kiefer Square desperately need.

He's hard to kill.

He'll have to be.
