Only the Savage Are Left

A young man searches for his true love in a monster-infested, post-apocalyptic world! The latest action-adventure from Zack Kaplan and Stefano Raffaele is collected in this graphic novel.

A strange virus has spread across the world, transforming its victims into terrible monsters. The only cure is to kill another infected soul.

When Ryder, a non-violent and idealistic young man, sets out from the safety of his settlement to find his missing true love, he is confronted by the horrors of a world gone mad. Terrifying monsters stalk the remaining world, while brutal monster-killers wage their own violent campaign in the name of survival. In this harsh post-apocalyptic reality, can Ryder save the love of his life without becoming a monster himself? A dramatic survival adventure that dares to ask what we should stand for in the monster-apocalypse.
