I feel like this is what the world is going to look like in a few years. Read only if you want to get depressed as heck.

Very dark and violent, a graphic novel adaptation of a Octavia Butler classic. It's heavy in philosophy of God and belief systems and religion in an internally violent submission post apocalyptic living hell on earth.
