[edit] Plot synopsis
Set in the American southwest, it tells the story of ex-con and social outcast Jimmy Cuervo. Despised by most of the local community, Jimmy plans to leave town once his probation is up and take his true love, Lily "Ignites the Dawn", with him. Those plans are altered when Luc Crash and Lola Byrne, leaders of a local satanic gang known as the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse", murder Lily for her blue eyes to consummate a ritual which will turn Luc into the devil reincarnated. Jimmy, murdered alongside Lily, returns from the afterlife as an immortal vigilante to exact revenge upon the Four Horsemen. To be reunited with Lily, he must face the devil himself in order to stop the evil plans of Luc and Lola. Saving the love he and Lily shared means Jimmy will also save the town that has shunned him, an ironic twist of fate that he must resolve to be reunited with Lily.
