It's Always Dark in Smoke City. A group of muggers thrash an innocent workman in a back alley. Mob drug runners flood the streets with filth, profiting on the backs of the addicted and hopeless. A rogue metahuman uses fantastic pyrokinetic powers to torch an entire neighborhood. The police are overwhelmed. Prisons overflow with the violent and psychotic. The innocent suffer while the guilty profit. Some say that justice is all but gone. You know better. Justice hasn't disappeared. Justice now wears a mask. Your mask! Inspired by the rise of dystopian, darker, contemporary comics from the 1980s onwards, Cold Steel Wardens: Roleplaying in the Iron Age of Comics brings the drama and suspense of the world's greatest comics to your game table.
