After 13 years on the streets of the grim, impoverished ghetto of Wilkesborough, Jesse Sanchez knows how to take care of herself even if she can't always take a bath. With dazzling martial artistry, peerless skateboarding skills, and questionable study habits, Jesse "Street Angel" Sanchez faces ninja street gangs, evil geologists, Satan worshippers, and anything else that threatens the sanctity of her 'hood. In the tradition of Harry Potter, Bruce Wayne, Annie, and Oliver Twist, make way for fiction's latest orphan superstar, Street Angel. She doesn't have much, but she'll defend it for all she's worth. This collection contains the first five issues of the critically-acclaimed underground series, a previously unpublished story, new squid battles, profiles of some of the most beloved characters, an introduction by Evan Dorkin, and an all-star pinup gallery featuring: Jeffrey Brown, Farel Dalrymple, Jesse Farrell, Richard Hahn, Dean Haspiel, Mike Hawthorne, Paul Hornshemeier, Dave Kiersh, Pat Lewis, Jasen Lex, Andy Macdonald, Jim Mahfood, Ted May, Scott Mills, Scott Morse, Bryan Lee O'Malley, Lark Pien, Ed Piskor, Brian Ralph, Zack Soto, Lauren Weinstein, and Dan Zettwoch.
