In the future, mankind has colonized the cosmos. Unemployment is sky high, and basic services are unreliable. Space pirates have made off-world deliveries pretty much impossible. Enter the Intergalactic Postal Service (IPS) which offers the best paying, yet deadliest jobs in the universe. It has a brutal, mercenary business model: Whoever delivers the package gets the cash. And every delivery can be made by any means necessary.

The initial value of each delivery is based on the package’s weight and the distance it needs to travel. The big-ticket jobs attract the most competition and the most blood-crazed killers. Every time a package changes hands the customer gets charged an additional fee. And in the world of SPACE BASTARDS, packages exchange hands A LOT. More bodies mean more money.

David S. Proton, a nerdy accountant who lost his job and is out of options goes to an informational session about joining the Intergalactic Postal Service, run by postmaster general Roy Sharpton. Manny Corns aka the Manicorn is paired up with David on his first day as a safety protocol. Manny is supposed to teach him how the system works but believes David is too weak to survive this job. After lots of mayhem and the package changing hands many times, David manages to steal the delivery from Manny which enrages him. Manny is now on the warpath to find David.

Meanwhile CEO of Powers Industries, Wayne Powers who is responsible for keeping the police from intervening with the delivery service has come up with a new technology that will eradicate the need for the IPS. The space bastards including a divorced real estate agent, Leroy Palestine, an alien immigrant, Zordakk, a raging alcoholic, Chuck Wagon, a retired privateer, Captain Fremis, a former executive assistant, Layla, David, Manny and many others will need to work together to preserve the job they love.
