Description
In a city filled with trust-fund babies and armchair revolutionaries, Heavy
Parker rules the punk scene as a benevolent dictator. He sings lead in a local
hardcore band. He puts out zines, pseudo-revolutionary material, and flypost
propaganda about town. It's good to be king. Or at least it is until Missy,
Heavy's girlfriend, goes away for college. How can a guy like Heavy be expected
to handle a long-distance romance? Short answer: He can't. Missy is out of sight
and Heavy's mind is already drifting towards his next sexual conquest. A king
can't be expected to live without a queen. But can he maintain his throne when

POUNDED? This new trade paperback collects the critically acclaimed three-issue
miniseries by Brian Wood (COUSCOUS EXPRESS, CHANNEL ZERO) and Steve Rolston
(QUEEN & COUNTRY, MEK).
