Kurt Busiek's Astro City : the tarnished angel
(Graphic Novel)

"Originally published as Kurt Busiek's astro city volume 2 #14-20" -- verso of t.p.

"It's only Kiefer Sqaure... 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-villians 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 Sqaure desperately need. He's hard to kill. He'll have to be."--,Provided by publisher.
