86 volts. That's all this little powerhouse needs to spring to life. 86 volts of pure energy to perk her up and wake the dead. Who is 86 Volts? Where does she come from? What does she want? These questions lead to shocking answers, but don't tell 86, because she knows even less than you do. She awakes in a world of dreams from some previous unknown adventure that left her lifeless upon a gravestone awaiting a bolt of lightning to bring her back to life. What will happen when little 86 throws down and mixes it up against a witch and her evil fetus? When black science and white magic clash in a spiritual free-for-all, the only result is pure chaos.

This 56-page one-shot is chock full of action, poetry, darkness and redemption. What more could you ask for?

This is the story of a loser, a stripper, a drug lord and a spider. It's urban crime noir, it's a fairy tale, it's mythology.

Deep inside, she was golden, and her inner strength ultimately set her free. No matter what bonds hold a person back, be it a bad marriage, prison, a small town or a gang-infested city, there's away a way. The story of Anansi is an African folk tale, told by people who songs and stories carried the spirits of men and women throughout the centuries, though good times and bad.
