Tracer's tenure as an Overwatch agent has concluded. Five years post the Petras Act endorsement, she now dedicates herself to combating small-scale crimes as a part-time hero. However, a punk-rock omnic named Iggy exposes Tracer to the harsh living conditions imposed on London's omnics. This revelation fuels Tracer's determination to assist in any way possible, even if it means putting herself back in the crosshairs.
Renowned Eisner and Harvey award-winning writer Mariko Tamaki (known for "This One Summer" and "X-23") collaborates with dynamic artist Babs Tarr (renowned for "Batgirl" and "Motor Crush"). This creative duo is complemented by the skilled colorist Rachel Cohen (from "Snotgirl") and the exceptional letterer Deron Bennett (known for "Tale of Sand"). Together, they bring forth a bi-monthly, five-part digital series set to be available online for free starting this December.
