Jeremiah
(by Hermann)
See also: Comic Errors
The US have fallen apart after an internal conflict, apparently something to do with clashes between races. It's not clear what really happened, it has been a while ago, and people are trying to survive. Some by farming, some by taking what they need. Jeremiah is a young guy, as good as alone in this tough environment. He meets Kurdy, who has about his age, but is his opposite in just about everything. Together they roam around, looking for work and a place to stay.
