About the release, Dynamite stated, "Painkiller Jane #0 started with Jane getting a tattoo (you've really got to see the issue to believe it!) and ended with in a fiery finale. Jane returns to the land of the living in issue #1 and was not happy (getting blown up tends to put her in a bad mood), but that didn't stop her from tackling a terrorist, saving a train full of New Yorkers and falling head first into a dangerous and mysterious conspiracy. By the end of the issue #1, the action really got hot for Jane (if you read it, you know what we mean) and continues to do so right through issue #2. So far, Painkiller Jane has been a great series- Guns! Explosions! Hard-hitting, in-your-face action! This series has it all! And to top it all off, you can catch Painkiller Jane in her Sci Fi television series every Friday night."

Painkiller Jane has starred in numerous cross-over comics with the likes of The Punisher, The Darkness, Vampirella, and Hellboy. The new SCI-FI television series with Kristanna Loken of Terminator 3 fame starring as Jane Vasko continues every Friday night!
