Wasteland comics

[Marzhin]

Hi everybody (and ghouls, mutants, etc.)

I'm new on this board but I have been lurking in NMA for years now. I decided to register to share a pearl I recently discovered. I think no one spoke about it yet.

It's a comic-book called WASTELAND (how familiar...), by writer Anthony Johnston and artist Christopher Mitten. It takes place, as the opening lines state, "One hundred years after the Big Wet, somewhere in America..." To quote directly the summary from the official site :

Wasteland takes place one hundred years after the Big Wet, a disaster that destroyed most of the world as we know it. Half the world is now covered by poisonous, rising oceans. What dry land remains is a broken, infertile world of hard ground and harder living.

Into this world steps Michael, a scavenger who roams the wasteland, trading what he can salvage. But Michael's latest find will change his life for ever - a machine that talks in a forgotten language, supposedly giving directions to the fabled land of A-Ree-Yass-I, where mankind's downfall began.

Here are some samples of the art :



Give it a try if you have the opportunity, it's damn good.

See you soon in the Wastes...

Thank you, but one of our Reporters found it a month ago

Thanks for the art, though.
