Warden Issue #0 CVR B

Warden: Issue #0 is a 20-page prequel thriller, set in the city of Ironport, where corruption doesn't hide in alleyways... it hides in paperwork. When florist David Johnson discovers his family business has been marked for "integration" under Civic Stability Act §14.2, he uncovers a system built on forged signatures, sealed affidavits, coerced confessions, and legal theft disguised as order.

Watching from the shadows is the Warden, a masked investigator tracking a pattern buried beneath case files, missing timestamps, and civic "resolutions" that always seem pre-approved.

Part crime noir, part theological conspiracy, Warden Issue #0 introduces a world where cities are controlled through fear, procedure, and quiet compromise, and where every signature leaves a witness.
