It is years after the last war, and the world has ended.

Surviving -- no, ''thriving'' -- in this world is "Weapon" Brown, a cybernetic mercenary with absolutely no pity and balls that could crack diamonds.

If you want something done to someone, don't need any questions answered, and absolutely ''need'' to make sure the poor bastards suffer, you call Weapon Brown.

* GoneHorriblyWrong (or maybe GoneHorriblyRight): CAL-v1.N.
