Published 2015 (est.) by Jet City Comics.$2.50
$2.50
Written by Joshua Hale Fialkov. Art by Bernard Chang. Cover by Bernard Chang and Marcelo Maiolo. King just wants what anybody wants: not to get fired, eaten, or forced to mate with a cheetah lady. As Earth's sole human survivor after the apocalypse, life among Los Angeles' strange, new populace ain't easy. Working for the LA Department of Reclamation, King gets a lot of crappy jobs going on quests and searching for artifacts from the 'old world,' which can range from the mythical (Excalibur!) to the absurd (an iPod Shuffle). The work commute can be a real pain in the asphalt, the 405 freeway is filled with mutants, monsters, mayhem and tentacled Elder Gods. And that's all before you hit the horrors of the San Fernando Valley. As the world's freakish inhabitants battle for supremacy, King searches for the 'seed of life,' which may give Earth the second chance it probably doesn't even deserve. 28 pages, full color. Rated T+ Cover price $2.99.
