The Story:

In the aftermath of the great apocalypse, across a scarred and barren land littered with corpses, a new order rises.  This land no longer resembles the one we live in now; it is a new land, with new rules.  The strongest survive, the weak fall.  Water is gold.  Who holds the water holds the land and its people.  Bandits loyal only to their overlord enslave survivors with an unwavering grip of fear.  With 'survival of the fittest' a grizzly epitaph for the vestiges of civilization, a lone warrior will rise from the ashes and cut a swath of justice across the Earth's ruined landscape with his unconquerable martial art.  He is Kenshiro.  Believe him when he says, 'You're already dead!'
