Infestación: The Mythology is a ground breaking graphic novel set on the border between Cd. Juárez and El Paso, where a zombie plague that has taken over both cities and all they have to survive is each other. Infestación: The Mythology is divided in three sections. Part 1, “Outbreak”; pertains to the first days of the zombie invasion in Cd. Juárez. Part 2, “Survival”; the undead onslaught makes its way across the border into El Paso, Texas, also known as Hell’s Pass. Only the most arrogant, egotistical, conceited, belligerent and self indulgent ‘heroes’ can survive Hell’s Pass. The final part, “Deliverance”, is set in Juárez a few years after the chaos. The remaining populaces have organized a new society around their messiah, a man called Dante, who disappeared and left this new found community to fend for themselves. The U.N. start to form an evacuation plan known as “The... More > Exodus”, to get the remaining survivors out of Juárez. Things are going well until their savior returns.< Less

More > Reporter) There are so many zombie books out there now; it's nice to see a fresh voice come out of a tired genre. Infestación was the most fun that I’ve had with a zombie book in a long time. The art (especially in the left behind story) was great, filled with a lot of emotion" - Ben Glibert (Semantink Publishing)< Less
