Arnold Drake (Deadman, Doom Patrol, and Guardians of the Galaxy) and Leslie Waller created, in 1950, the first and original american Graphic Novel and to develop this new concept they invited Matt Baker (the master of Good Girl Art) and Ray Osrin.

In this noir and pulp fiction story, filled with greed, sex, and political corruption. Hal Weber, a onetime crusading journalist, is summoned to Copper City by his old flame Rust after the death of her husband, mining magnate and political heavyweight Arthur "Buck" Masson.

As editor of The Express, a newspaper with an anti-Masson stance secretly owned by Rust, Hal is drawn back to her even as he falls for her stepdaughter Audrey.

The situation in Copper City soon literally becomes explosive, with Hal having to choose between Rust and Audrey, the bottle and his conscience, safety and the truth.
