The invention is related to wound closure devices, systems and methods that comprise a wound closure strip comprising a three-part release liner assembly that permits accurate placement of the wound closure strip during the approximation of opposing wound surfaces while preserving the integrity of the device's adhesive. Preferably, after the wound closure strip has been applied to approximate a wound, a flowable, polymerizable adhesive is applied to the wound closure strip to form a flexible, wound closure composite device (i.e., wound closure strip/polymerized adhesive composite).
