Writer and musician Scott Hoffman collaborates with the rare talent Juan Bobillo for a story set in a fallen world that, despite its harsh conditions, maintains a richly textured beauty under Bobillo's pen and colours. A powerful story about found family and hope among decay.

Wag, a loner in a post-apocalyptic world, hears voices in his head. It could be remnants of ancient technology ("old magic"), or he might just be crazy. With the aid of an ever-growing band of oddballs, Wag sets out on a quest to discover the source of his troubles โ€” confronting strange and deadly enemies along the way โ€” and ultimately fight an epic battle with the evil forces responsible for the collapse of civilisation!

A neurodivergent futuristic adventure from writer Scott Hoffman (Nostalgia, co-founder & member of the Scissor Sisters) and artist Juan Bobillo (She-Hulk, Howard the Duck, Astonishing X-Men), with covers and design by Rian Hughes (2000 AD, Vertigo, Batman: Black and White), now in print for the first time!
