5 | Way back during World War II, the Nazis attempted to create werewolf super-soldiers by mixing human and wolf DNA. Decades later, the unscrupulous A.R.E. Co. got ahold of the Nazis' notes and tried to improve on their experiments, creating true wolf-human hybrids, but they lost control of this project and a number of the hybrids got out into the world. In the modern day, a descendant of this program, Lupita Luka, now works for the US government, hunting down others of her kind who have gone rogue. |

9 | !!This series contains examples of: |
10 | |
11 | * AlliterativeName: The main character is named Lupita Luka. One of her associates is named Lee Langschen. |
12 | * DependingOnTheArtist: Lupita's costume is usually skimpy, but some of the variant cover artists go even further, drawing her in just a skimpy bondage-style harness or lingerie with fishnets. |
13 | * EyeScream: In the first issue, Lupita puts a baseball bat through the eye of one of her attackers. |
14 | * NeverSuicide: After Lupita and her team notice that one of the A.R.E. Corporation's employees, Dr. Karen Terry, is using the name of an 80-year-old woman despite not looking 80, they decide to do a wellness check and the real Dr. Terry and find her dead from what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Lupita orders them to check for gunshot residue on the woman's hands, convinced that it's probably a set-up. |
15 | * OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: While true werewolves exist in the world of "Bad Wolf", there are also a number of hybrids, like Lupita, who were the product of experiments. |
16 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: The third issue introduces Lee "Poison" Langshen, a diminutive kickboxer. |
17 | * QueerColors: One of the variant covers for the first issue features Lupita posing against a background of yellow, pink, and indigo in the formation of the pansexual pride flag. The second issue also has her visiting a strip club during her down time and requesting a lapdance from a woman. |
18 | * SoleSurvivor: The US government first became aware of the Nazis' werewolf program after one of their soldiers survived an ambush in the Ardennes Forest in 1944. |
19 | * SpottingTheThread: In the first issue, Lupita notices that a biker bar in El Paso has a lot of bikes in front of it, but nobody is actually in the bar. It turns out the bar is a trap; the bikers come in for a drink, and get captured to feed the werewolves that live there. The werewolves then sell the bikes to keep the bar funded so that they can keep luring in more prey. |
20 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: Lupita's costume consists of a skimpy harness, a thong, and some boots, and sometimes she doesn't even bother with the boots. Possibly justified in that she is a lycanthrope and thus more conservative clothing might inhibit her transformations. |
21 | * StupidJetpackHitler: Lupita is the descendant of a Nazi program to create werewolf super-soldiers. |
22 | * VariantCover: Each issue has multiple variants, including several covers featuring photos of women dressed as Lupita. |
