They are here! "Endtown" volumes one and two, by Aaron Neathery are now available for purchase.
If you like humor and apocalyptic scenarios, then you will love Endtown. Neathery expertly combines the two to create his comic strip.
Endtown comic bio:
It's the end of civilization as we know it. A mutagenic plague followed by a global war fought with disintegration weaponry has left much of the Earth a desert of fine powder and what remains of humanity fragmented into humans, animal-like mutants and bloodthirsty monstrosities with lots of teeth. The surface, still teeming with the mutagenic virus, has become the domain of the dreaded Topsiders; well-organized, technologically advanced and heavily armed un-mutated humans sworn to exterminate mutations of any kind in order to clear the way for the eventual resurgence of a new, genetically clean humanity. Faced with annihilation, mutants and "impure" humans have retreated into the depths of the planet to form communities and hope to win, or at least survive, what may prove to be mankind's final war. Endtown is the continuing story of one of those communities.

Light, serious and gut-punching all at once, told with a lightly deft narration and immaculately loose artwork. Endtown is a work of genius, and Aaron Neathery unerringly hits bullseye after bullseye. I truly believe it to be one of the best graphic story series you will ever find.
Buy the books (both Volumes 1 and 2, of course, for the complete novel) and read them. You will NEVER find better.

I got both volumes as soon as they were on sale! Aaron signed them and made me as happy as a camper! Now they're sealed up and locked in my fire box safe. I guess I'll have to buy another pair. I recommend everyone to buy both copies to help Aaron pay his Hospital bills or we'll lose the best comic strip since forever. ;-(

This is NOT Garfield, nor Family Circus (shudder). But if you value intelligent discourse that really gets you thinking, excellent artwork, and tense drama diffused with a splash of brilliant humor at the most unexpected moments, then give Endtown a try!

Yes, indeed, Endtown is terrific! It's laugh-out-loud funny, deadly serious, really weird, or downright scary, sometimes all at once. It's a remarkable achievement and deserves to be much more well known.

A brilliantly done strip. Gorgeous art work, characters you love, and characters you love to hate, (Prof Mallard, I'm looking at YOU!). Along with intriguing, suspenseful, entertaining and well thought out plots. So far there have been 3 major story arcs, and we are embarking on a fourth. Come on over and join us as we discover what it means to be human.

This is one of the better comic strips out today. The stories are well told, the artwork superb, and the characters are memorable. Aaron Neathery rates right up there with the late Milt Caniff of 'Steve Canyon' fame for being a consummate cartoonist,artist, and story teller.
