The front half of this flip-book features Laci, the sexy bad girl from the early issues of The Ride who dispenses hard justice wearing a Catholic school-girl uniform and toting big guns. Here, we learn a bit about her background: discovering the truth about her parents’ deaths at eighteen, getting kicked out of the family business at seventeen, losing her virginity at sixteen, learning to defend herself at the age of ten—everything that made her the freckle-faced butt-kicker she is and led up to her earliest appearances.

The back half of the book is another story of the 1968 Camaro convertible that is the subject of the various The Ride limited series; here, a young woman and a friend head to New Orleans in her daddy’s sweet ride for Mardi Gras and find far more than they bargained for. This is an excellent introduction to the world of The Ride, which is a thumping good ride itself.
