Cobalt City

It's a multi-billion dollar industry in a country that would rather look away-an insidious crime so horrible that authorities are powerless, or unwilling, to stop it. Not even Cobalt City, the bright, cosmopolitan center of the superhero world, is safe from human trafficking and sexual slavery. For heroes used to dealing with madmen and megalomaniacs, the decentralized nature of the blight is difficult to comprehend, much less impact. How do you combat not just criminals but the very nature of a crime itself? Velvet, society girl turned powerhouse, has slugged it out with gods. But when she crosses paths with a dead young woman, she finds herself dragged into a grim underworld that challenges her understanding of the city. With the mysterious vigilante Bantam as her guide, Velvet goes in search of justice for the victims of sex trafficking-whether the deadly Harlequin and Crime Kings of Cobalt City like it or not. But how can she hope to stop something as nebulous as an idea?
