Issue description
by Jimmy Palmiotti & Lee Moder
The tag-team of Quesada and Palmiotti are back! Throw in Painkiller Jane, and now
youve got Dynamite! Thats right, Dynamite is the new home of Painkiller Jane, and
this February (just a few short months after Janes TV debut in her SCI-FI movie) shes
hitting comic shops across the country! Jane Vasko was once an undercover police
officer attempting to infiltrate the Fonti Mob. After gaining the trust of mob boss Joey
Fonti, she was given the assignment of passing a message onto rival gang member Adam,
not realizing that she was planted with an explosive device. As she met her target, the
explosion caused significant injuries, but Adam was uninjured. Through mysterious
means, he managed to revive Jane, giving her superhuman regenerative powers in the
process. Leaving her life as a police officer behind, she became the vigilante Painkiller
Jane. Featuring interior art by Lee Moder.
