The series takes place in a different universe to our own, as in this universe around the 19th century a large part of New York was turned in to a prison. In our world, this part is known as Manhatten, but in this world, it became a place called Prison City where America's most wanted and most dangerous people go. Over the course of many years, Prison City built up quite a large number of prisoners. In fact, at the beginning of season one Prison City has almost nine thousand inmates.
The main character of the series, Axel Walker, is an inmate of Prison City who is not ashamed of the fact he is guilty of his crimes. This is obvious from his very first words, where he brags about killing fifty people. In season one, Axel is the most mysterious character, as with all the other characters we know why they did what they did, but from the very beginning it's made clear Axel was actually very respected and had a regular childhood, so no one knows why he did it. His reasons are eventually revealed, but it takes quite some time before they are.
From episode one onwards, Axel has a goal for what he wants to do while in Prison City. He wants to find the biggest crime bosses/serial killers in the city and kill all of them to take the city over for himself. Or as Axel puts it, "fear is always a good way to make someone do as they're told."
