In the far future, humankind is on the brink of extinction. A thousand years after an apocalypse level event known as the Calamity, only small pockets of rough civilization exist. Ruling over Earth are a new race of monstrous beings — The Great Plagues. From Charlie “Moist Cr1TiKaL” White, with stunning art from rising star artist Vamkire Trannel, PLAGUE SEEKER is unlike any comic you’ve ever read.

Magic exists alongside science and technology, and its practitioners dwell in every strata of modern society. Exceptional even among these exceptional individuals is the preternaturally gifted…the iconoclastic…the sarcastic and short-tempered…Marvin the Magnificent!

A long time ago, in a galax—no, wait. Gifted with Great Power and Great Respon–nope. Not that either. After a lifetime of fandom and fantasy, Jackie was caught in a strange, cosmic cock-up that gave him amazing powers! …Or at least, ‘fairly impressive physical abilities’? Now, inspired by the kinds of heroes from his favorite comics, anime, and video games, he’s trying to be a real-life super hero in an otherwise ordinary world, as the somewhat incredible JACKIE-BOY MAN!
