I was looking over some of my favorite comic sets and and began wondering how many different "end of the world" or "mans future survival after the nuclear war" comic story lines are there. Heres a few I know of , but would appreciate any mention of ones that might be a good read. Especially current, still on the rack types. I'd like to read some.

 

Some older ones I know of are....

 

Kamandi - Kirby's last great series.

Mr. X - Motter and the Hernandez bros followed by Seth

Judge Dredd - Wagner and Bolland

Xenozoic Tales - Mark Schultz awesomeness

 

and more recently Kirkmans the Walking Dead

 

Any other good "end of the world" reads out there I should take a look at ?

How old is that one ? I never read it

 

 

Early 1970's...done for Charlton before Byrne started working for Marvel. It's a fun read (thumbs u

 

Sounds interesting.... although I have an aversion to Charlton books lol. Thanks for the idea though..... I'll keep an eye out for cheap copies. Doomsday

Judge Dredd - Wagner and Bolland

I find it interesting how the future imagined by Wagner for Dredd is coming closer to reality everyday. hm:eek:

 

I was thinking the same thing during the riots. I love Dredd and the writers' twisted imaginations.

Dredd has got to be one of the best reads goin from the 80's. My only complaint is the size of the lettering..... its just too small and hard to see. I think somebody messed up with that one. But the stories, and ideas are just the best !!

I blame the lazy publishers who just shrink down the tabloid size pages to fit inside a comic book.

 

I was lucky that in the '80s my LCS got a dozen or two of the early 2000 AD mags that included the Burger Wars. From that point on, I was hooked. Bolland's art is unbelievable - even more unbelievable was that he somehow met a deadline for a weekly publication.
