Case in point, they’ve stumbled upon an infestation of otherworldly goblins in Hopkinsville, who are driving the townsfolk to murder! And when the team can’t trust their own eyes, how will they face the minions of evil?

Writer: Jason Aaron
Artist: Alexandre Tefenkgi

Jason Aaron and Alexandre Tefenkgi‘s fable of a bleak future continues in Maceo and Mezzy’s childhood years, with nothing but Mezzy’s guidebook and her skills as a wastelander to get them through their dangerous, post-apocalyptic journey.
As time passes and they endure the horrors of plastic tornadoes and frozen sludge, Maceo proves to be more than just a burden, and they make a connection where none seemed possible at first.
But to their unexpected peril, they might not be as alone as they thought…
