A Daring and Unconventional Premise
Pissant Apocalypse thrusts readers headfirst into a future desert wasteland where survival is an art, and the rules of society as we know it have crumbled. At the heart of this chaos stands our hulking, enigmatic protagonist – a character as compelling as they are mysterious. It’s a chance encounter with a young woman that propels our hero on a perilous mission: to hunt down and eliminate the enigmatic “Four Architects of the Apocalypse.”
Meet the Architects of Destruction
What truly sets Pissant Apocalypse apart is its intriguing cast of characters. From the cunning General Candy to the enigmatic Engineer of the Apocalypse, the dastardly Alchemist of the Apocalypse, and the ominous King of the World, each character is a marvel of storytelling and artistic creativity. They breathe life into a world torn asunder, adding depth and complexity to an already rich narrative.
A Creative Journey Worth Celebrating
Pissant Apocalypse didn’t just happen overnight; it was born from the fertile mind of James Edward Clark, an award-winning artist known for his remarkable works like “Tales to Enlighten” and “EVIL Comics.” The journey began with a seed of an idea in his sketchbook, and from there, the big yellow protagonist emerged, taking hold of James’ imagination. What started as a one-shot project grew into a sprawling 170+ page graphic novel, printed across five mini-comic zines. It’s a testament to James’ dedication and passion for his craft.
An Electrifying Blend of Influences
Fans of the ’80s animated film Heavy Metal, and the British comic 2000 AD will find themselves right at home in the world of Pissant Apocalypse. The vibes of those classics seep through every page, giving the graphic novel a distinct and exhilarating personality. It’s a fusion of nostalgia and innovation, a tribute to the past while pushing the boundaries of the present.
