From critically acclaimed comic book writer Joshua Hale Fialkov (The Bunker, Echoes, and I, Vampire) and superstar artists Bernard Chang and Marcelo Maiolo (Green Lantern Corps, Batman Beyond) comes a postapocalyptic action/adventure comedy. King just wants what anybody wants: not to get fired, eaten, or forced to mate with a cheetah lady. For Earth's sole human survivor after the apocalypse, life among Los Angeles's 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-which, let's be honest, was a terrible, terrible invention). The commute can be a real pain in the asphalt, too; 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.

After escaping abject terror in the events of Full Throttle Dark, Val, Em, Bailey, and the Ferrymen are seeking out the location of Eos, the place where evil was first unleashed onto the world as the sun was forever set. As our heroes traverse the shade-infested waters, shocking new pacts will have to be forged if they ever hope to survive. Legendary creators Scott Snyder (Dark Knights: Death Metal, Wytches) and Tony S. Daniel (Batman, Deathstroke) provide all-new scares in the next arc of this pulse-pounding hit ongoing series. Also included, a chilling origin tale for series antagonist Blacktop Bill. Collects NOCTERRA #7-11 & NOCTERRA: BLACKTOP BILL SPECIAL
