ABOUT

The Last Kids on Earth meets Encanto in this hilarious graphic novel sequel, which finds Doom and his oddball friends leaving the safety of their camp for a daring—and incredibly dangerous—mission to rescue their parents.

Doom Thorax is anything but ordinary! Sure, he might not have unusual abilities like all of his friends. But he is the only one of them who can read. And his books have helped them not only survive but thrive in their post-apocalyptic world. So much so that their camp has been growing the last few months, with new kids arriving from all over. And they all have the same eerily familiar story: their parents left to fight some mysterious threat and never returned….

Of course, everyone fears the worst, that is until a fateful clue about the adults whereabouts arrives on their doorstep. If there’s any chance of rescuing his dad and the other adults, Doom knows they must leave their camp and venture out into the unknown. So he assembles a crew of friends and new allies, he sets out across a wondrously bizarre landscape that is as varied as is it dangerous. With the help of Doom’s books—and by learning to work together—the group will have to make it long enough to find the adults. But will this ragtag bunch of kids ultimately have what it takes to go up against a monster that was strong enough to defeat all of their parents?

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
